Everton Loan Report

Moise Kean – Juventus

The latest rumours suggest that Moise Kean will not be playing for Juventus next season despite their obligation to buy the 22-year old striker. Some reports suggest he could move to PSG with the French club eager to have him back.

This month was not Kean’s best performance and it probably didn’t help his chances of staying at Juventus long term. He appeared in all five matches but failed to provide a single goal in that time. The best game that Kean played this month was against Genoa where he played all 90 minutes and assisted Paulo Dybala to open the scoring. Genoa rallied in the final three minutes to secure a 2-1 victory.

The last game of the season was Kean’s worst and likely his last in the black and white stripes. The striker started the game and played 76 minutes without any offensive production. He also received a yellow card just before halftime and the game ended in a 2-0 loss to Fiorentina.

Kean has some work to do in the offseason to flourish into an elite scorer. It will be exciting to see where he ends up next season.
