Juventus in advanced talks to sign Moise Kean
Juventus are in advanced talks to sign Everton attacker Moise Kean this summer, according to Sky Sports journalist Kaveh Solhekol.
Solhekol reported via his personal Twitter account on Thursday night that the “deal is close” with the Serie A giants looking for reinforcements this summer.
Italian journalist Alfredo Pedulla, who works for TV Dello Sport, stated that the Toffees are open to letting him leave on a loan with talks of a £21.5million obligation to buy.
Good move?
The Toffees were unwilling to allow him to leave on loan for Paris St. Germain, but that could be down to the fact that the Ligue 1 side weren’t willing to guarantee to sign him at the end of the season.
With Lionel Messi’s arrival, they appeared to have cooled their interest, but things could heat up again should Kylian Mbappe part ways with the club.
That said, Kean could prefer a move to Italy as he shares a previous working relationship with Massimiliano Allegri and that could be enough for him to sign for Juventus.
Everton will then need to sign another attacker this summer, and with only a few days left before the window shuts, they must act quickly.
Demarai Gray and Andros Townsend may have arrived, but uncertainties over the futures of James Rodriguez and now Kean could see Rafa Benitez go to the board and ask them to sanction a move for a first-team attacker.
It remains to be seen what happens until August 31, but we’re certain to see some major incomings and outgoings.
