According to Fabrizio Romano, Everton could land between £52.1 million – £60.8 million if they were to sell Moise Kean, who is thriving at Paris Saint-Germain.
The Italian journalist was discussing the striker’s future after he scored PSG’s third goal against Barcelona inside the Camp Nou.
Romano said on his Here We Go podcast: “Everton will fight for Kean, or receive €60 million (£52.1 million) or €70 million (£60.8 million) or keep the player. Carlo Ancelotti is a big fan of Kean. In my opinion, they are planning for him as the star for next season.”
We can’t argue about the figures quoted by the transfer guru.
At just 20 years of age, Kean is undoubtedly amongst Europe’s best young forwards, and could easily command such a fee.
The 8-cap Italy international has scored an eye-catching 16 goals in 29 appearances this season, which is simply fantastic.
That is the beauty in signing young, up-and-coming players.
Everton splashed out £25.1 million to bring Kean to Goodison Park, and while things didn’t necessarily go too well, his value has still risen thanks to an impressive loan spell and his age.
Carlo Ancelotti has only started the former Juventus attacker on five occasions since replacing Marco Silva, but the Toffees don’t look likely to make a loss on their investment.
Contrastingly, Everton could in fact decide to keep him, and have an exciting attacking trio of Richarlison, Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Kean.
Having said that, none of this would be possible if his loan spell at the Parc des Princes had gone terribly – Everton owe the Parisians for their tutoring.
