Cosenza planning to exercise option to buy midfielder Kanoute amidst interest from Monaco and Lille

After an excellent season in Serie B with Cosenza, Pescara loanee Franck Kanoute has attracted the interest from several clubs, willing to sign the 1998-born midfielder ahead of next season. One of the clubs interested in securing the player is the Senegalese's current club Cosenza, that could exercise the €4 million option to buy that the Calabrian club and Pescara had agreed last summer.

However, Kanoute - a youth product of Juventus - is also in the radar of Ligue 1 clubs: Monaco have already inquired signing the player, while Lille is planning to enter the race to secure the 21-year-old's signature as well. The midfielder will finish the Serie B season with Cosenza, which are battling to avoid relegation, and then focus on the future with many options on his table.
