Everton seal €32m deal with Juventus for youngster Moise Kean

Everton have agreed a deal with Juventus to sign Italian starlet Moise Kean for a fee of around €32m. 

The 19-year-old striker is scheduled to travel to Merseyside on Wednesday to complete a medical with the club.

While the initial deal for Kean is worth €32m it could rise to around €40m due to add-ons. The deal would also see Everton pay him €3m a year.

Kean started his youth career at Asti in 2007 before quickly moving to Torino. After spending three years as part of their youth set-up, he eventually moved to their cross-town rivals Juventus.

Last year he scored six goals from thirteen appearances for Juventus and he's heralded by many as a rising star of Italian football.

He has represented Italy at youth level and more recently he's gotten three senior international caps.

Kean is Everton's third signing of the summer after they signed Portuguese midfielder Andre Gomes from Barcelona for €24m and Fabian Delph from Manchester City for €9m.

They also acquired Danish goalkeeper Jonas Lössl from Huddersfield Town on a free transfer.

In terms of their outgoings, midfielder Idrassa Gueye recently moved to Paris Saint Germain for a fee of around €32m.

Speaking to PSG, Gueye told the club website: "I wanted to give a new boost to my club career by joining Paris St-Germain, one of the most structured and ambitious sports projects in Europe."
