Moise Kean prefers Juventus move after Allegri appointment – Report
Everton striker Moise Kean was expected to join PSG permanently but Juventus’ Massimiliano Allegri appointment has now created a dilemma for him.
According to Italian outlet Gazzetta, Kean now wants to join Juventus and reunite with former boss Allegri at the Allianz Stadium.
Having spent a year on loan at Paris Saint-Germain, it seemed like the Italian had his heart set on a move to the Parc des Princes, with Fabrizio Romano reporting that Everton were in talks with them over a transfer fee.
However, now that Kean is keen on moving to Italy, it could take a while before the player gets his transfer away from Goodison Park this summer.
Unnecessary delays
Mauricio Pochettino took over mid-season and has been impressed with Kean, who he wants to sign permanently at the club.

Even though there are doubts about the Argentine’s future, there is an interest within the club to keep hold of the 21-year-old.
However, Kean burst onto the scene at Juventus, and he wants to return to his country where he hopes to get his career back on track.
His versatility would give Allegri the option of playing anywhere across the front line, and he would also count as a homegrown player for the Old Lady – making him an option worth considering.
Per Tuttomercato Web, Everton are looking for a £34m fee in exchange for his services, but should Juventus show a legitimate interest, the Toffees could drive up the fee.
It’s fair to saw Kean hasn’t been a success for us, so we’re glad to see the back of him and hopefully, we could reallocate that money to strengthen in other positions.
