The Italian has made the switch to Everton from Juventus.

Everton announced the signing for Italian attacker Moise Kean from Juventus on Sunday.

Although the fee is officially undisclosed, the BBC report that the Toffees have paid an initial £25.1m for his services, which could rise to £27.5m.

He becomes Everton’s fifth acquisition of the summer after deals for Jean-Philippe Gbamin, Andre Gomes, Fabian Delph and Jonas Lossl.

They’ve invested a fair bit of money into their new season and fans will be hoping that Kean can add the kind of attacking edge they need to help push them towards a top six finish.

Still just 19, Kean has played 21 times for Juventus, scoring eight goals.

Also already winning three senior caps with the Italian national team, scoring twice, it’s clear he’s seen as one of the best prospects in his homeland.

Something of a coup then that Everton have managed to bring him to Goodison Park, despite his lack of experience.

The striker should get more starting opportunities than he was getting at Juventus, perhaps a key reason why he’s decided to make an important next step in his career.

Some fans are delighted he’s arrived, clearly feeling that he could be a player that adds real spark to the Everton front line.

These supporters took to Twitter on Sunday to share their thoughts…
