Ehh. Assuming equal valuations, no. Something that would allow us to net a respectable amount of capital gain, perhaps.
Kessie is basically a much better version of gagliardini. Brozo is a ball facilitator. I guess it depends on what Inzaghi’s ideas are in terms of his starting midfield. I would argue Brozo is more quality but I think Kessie is more suited to box to box duties.

Most Improved MemberI really don't know if it's a straight swap. Hakan is replacing Brozo quite good for now, and the latter has started with injuries. Kessie is 4 years younger and we actually do need a physical midfielder. I've read that Kessie earns 9 mln gross in Barca, which is less than Brozo, but I'm not sure how true is that.
From another point, I'm not sure how Kessie will fit in our style of play.

10 years of FIFI don't think we would consider straight swap. Brozo is our key players while Kessie is a fucking bum for Barcelona.

Best Overall PosterFor me it's a straight no. Even if we decide to move on from Brozovic we should target a different type of midfielder than Kessie. A Barella-Calhanoglu-Kessie midfield trio wouldn't work in Inzaghi ball. Kessie would make sense only if we have decided to change the coach in the summer and switch to double pivot.

Best Football PosterBest Overall PosterSame salary. 6m net. Also Kessie doesn't apply to Growth Decree so we aren't saving anything.

Most Diverse PosterI wouldn't like it, but getting Kessie for Brozović is still better than letting Brozo go for free. Brozović also plays too much and he isn't the same player anymore as far injuries go.

I don't like how easy we want to get rid of Brozovic on this forum. This guy has developed himself to a very important player for Inter. We were looking lost every time he didn't play and we want to swap him with Kessie? Someone who sat on the bench the last 6 months? What makes us so sure that Kessie will outperform Brozo? Or that our midfield would ''cliclk''? I agree that this season he hasn't been as good as normally but give this guy a break. He played every minute he was available and his injuries didn't help but show this guy the respect he deserves.

I think there's been mostly critical conversation over this swap proposal, evaluation pros and cons of this possible swap.

In the player topic there are quite a few members who are positive about this swap. But it's mostly aimed at the management for coming up with these stupid ideas. And if it was Barca idea then they should told them to f*ck off.

I honestly think this is more media bs playing up intermediary interactions because we’re not capable of making any moves short of a sale or player swap. There is way more incentive for Barca to move Kessie than for us to pawn off one of our key players. Realistically it was probably a soft no from us, with Kessie being an appreciated counterpart.
