Moise Kean set to sign Juventus contract on Monday ahead of Everton exit
Moise Kean is set to sign his Juventus contract today as he puts the finishing touches on his Everton exit, according to TuttoMercatoWeb.
The Italian news outlet claims the 21-year-old will put pen to paper for the Serie A giants on Monday after arriving in Turin and undergoing his medical at their medical headquarters over the weekend.
Kean is set to return to Juventus on a two-year loan deal with the obligation to make it permanent after two years away in England, though the last of those was spent on loan at PSG.
One in, one out?
Given Everton’s desperation to provide better backup for star striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin this season, some may have started to think the Italy international may be sticking around at Goodison Park for the 2021/22 campaign.
However, it appears that all parties are keen to see him move on after he failed to spark into life on Merseyside.
His loan spell at PSG last season showed there is talent there, but perhaps he needs to be around a higher-calibre of player in order to unlock his true ability.
That’s not to discount the talent within the Blues ranks, but he was playing with Neymar and Kylian Mbappe in Paris and will line up alongside Paulo Dybala and Federico Chiesa in Turin.
Those are players that can travel with the ball at breakneck speed and create chances from nothing, providing the ball on a plate for Kean.
He didn’t have that as much at Everton, with less speed and verve around him.
Ironically, that may be starting to change now with Demarai Gray already starting to shine at Goodison Park.
But it appears Kean’s time at Everton is up, and now the Blues must source a replacement before Tuesday’s transfer deadline.
