Everton striker Moise Kean granted exit, Inter Milan and Fiorentina interested
Everton will let Moise Kean leave this summer with two Serie A clubs in pursuit of the 21-year-old striker, according to TuttoMercatoWeb.
The Italian news outlet claims the former Juventus forward is currently looking for a new club after the Merseyside club agreed to grant him a move this summer.
As per TuttoMercatoWeb’s report, the nine-cap Italy international can leave on a straight loan or a loan with the option to buy.
Inter Milan chief executive Guiseppe Marotta is said to be “evaluating his profile” today [Tuesday, 17/08/21] with the potential of making a move later in the window.
Kean is not the Nerazzurri’s first-choice target, though, with Duvan Zapata and Joaquin Correa ahead of him.
However, there is other Italian interest in the 2020/21 PSG loanee in the form of Fiorentina.
End the saga
Ideally, we would like to keep Kean as he is by far and away the second-best striker at the club.
That’s not hard as there are so few, but with Rafa Benitez yet to bring in a new centre-forward since taking charge of the Blues earlier this summer, there is a real worry that we will be left short on options in that position once again.
Luckily, Dominic Calvert-Lewin was fit for most of the 2020/21 campaign, but for the games he missed through injury Richarlison was required to shift from the wing to the middle.
For all his endeavour, we cannot rely on Richarlison as our sole striker if the worst happens and Calvert-Lewin suffers a bad injury.
Therefore, if and when Kean does seal his exit, we need to put any funds that are released into the signing of a new attacker.
In other Everton news, the agents of this Blues-linked international attacker have flown into Europe to plot his expected summer switch.
