Everton have been missing a proven striker since Romelu Lukaku left for Manchester United in 2017-18, but now it looks like they have landed a promising talent who not only fits Marco Silva's system, but also is young and has a chance to grow into a star as Moise Kean has transferred to the Blues from Juventus.
With the Premier League season just a few days away, Everton has now secured a player of such great talents in which they hope can help lead the team trophies and a spot in either the Europa League or even Champions League in the future. The deal is reportedly worth around £29 million, but the terms are undisclosed. In 13 matches played for Juventus last season, he managed to score six goals (21 matches and eight goals overall for Juve in his career).
Kean is known to play as a center striker, which fits perfectly into Silva's offense. He is known to be quick and strong who has an accurate shot and good technical skills. He is very versatile as he can play as a second striker, a left-sided forward, or as a winger. Kean might be the star that could make the Toffees that force fans in the Merseyside have been craving.
Kean is fairly young as he is 19, so he is not even in his prime yet, plus Everton might be getting a bargain here as he could flourish in the Premier League and become one of the best strikers in the world. He has played three matches for Italy on the international stage, but he could become their number one scoring threat for the Italians if he does well in England.
It will be interesting to see how Kean meshes with players on the club such as Gylfi Sigurdsson, Richarlison, Bernard, and Andre Gomes, but with all the potential there, Silva's squad might have a potent offense that many backlines will have difficulties defending. The Blues could push for a Top Six spot.
