Will Aston Villa sign another striker this summer? Well, whether they keep faith in their senior duo, Ollie Watkins and Danny Ings or not, one thing is for sure, they are fishing the transfer market.
One of the names that have recently popped up on Aston Villa’s transfer radar has been Everton-owned, Moise Kean, who has spent several loan spells away from Goodison Park recently.
During the recently concluded campaign, the 22-year-old donned the colours of Juventus, as well as being on the books of Paris Saint-Germain.
In France, he worked under the stewardship of the now-Chelsea boss, Thomas Tuchel, who got some strong performances out of the player.
And when he managed him, this is what he had to say about the player back in 2020, as quoted by beIN SPORTS.
“[Kean] has a big heart, he puts on intensity,” said Tuchel. “He is not afraid, he is courageous. He does what is necessary.
“I wouldn’t want to be a defender against him right now, it’s really hard to play against him.”
ASTON VILLA SHOULD STAY AWAY FROM KEAN
Kean struggled during his loan spell at Juventus last season, scoring only five Serie A goals and he hasn’t really made his mark at Everton, either – and that should say it all given their troubles.
Ollie Watkins has performed better during his two seasons in the Premier League than Kean, whilst Danny Ings is the proven and experienced performer.
Then there is somebody like Cameron Archer, who is a thriving youngster and everything he seems to touch turns to gold.
So, Villa and Steven Gerrard are probably better off sticking with those players and trying to improve them, rather than bringing in Kean, and that for possibly big money.
