Juve said to be planning on taking Kean back
A dubious report in Italy suggests that Juventus are willing to offer Everton a players-plus-cash deal to lure Moise Kean back to the club.
According to TuttoJuve, there is a chance that he could move back to Juventus this summer in exchange for cash and at least two players.
Kean has risen to prominence in a fantastic spell with PSG, where he has scored a total of 15 goals in 27 games, and is seen as a key part of the first team.
This is something he was unable to achieve at Everton, despite playing 29 Premier League games in his debut season. He largely struggled to make an impact, failing to reach his personal target of 7 goals for the campaign, and scoring only 2.
Although the player may be reluctant to admit it, his future lies in Everton's hands as they hold his contract for potentially the next 3 years. But Ancelotti and Brands are unlikely to force him to return to Everton, especially if the faint glimmer of Champions League football is finally snuffed out before the summer transfer window opens.
Indeed, Le10 Sport claimed an exclusive stating Kean has now ‘made his choice' regarding a transfer. he's said to be happy in Paris, so if he's allowed to leave Everton in the summer, his decision will be to join the Ligue 1 club.
However, Everton have a rather big say in all of this, and Le10 state the club ‘seem to be very greedy' when it comes to a transfer fee for the player. That is entirely their right, and it's now down to PSG to persuade Everton to sell Kean on if the feeling is mutual. But for what fee?
Meanwhile, in other transfer rumours, the dreadful Football Insider website claims that Everton have 'set their sights' on signing Napoli star Kalidou Koulibaly this summer.
