Kean Favors Atletico Madrid over Serie A Destinations

Moise Kean could leave Juventus in January, but he’s waiting for the right opportunity. He has been touted to depart on loan after extending his contract, which expires in 2025. Monza and Fiorentina were the first to target him, but he prefers going abroad, more precisely to Atletico Madrid, Alfredo Pedullà relays.

The Colchoneros might sign another forward due to Memphis Depay’s injury problems. More foreign landing spots could emerge later on.

Kean has missed the last few matches because of a tibia injury but will return soon. Kenan Yildiz has taken full advantage of the situation, as Federico Chiesa has been banged up too, faring exceptionally well in recent weeks.

Monza inquired due to Lorenzo Colombo’s uncertain future. Milan are trying to use him in other negotiations. Fiorentina like him but haven’t moved concretely. They’d likely need to part ways with M’Bala Nzola first. Rennes have also been rumored as a possible destination, but there haven’t been direct contacts between clubs at this stage.

Our Take on Kean

While you can never be deep enough, Yildiz is a much Chiesa deputy and spark plug off the bench. It’s pointless to keep three center-forwards for one spot since the other two ones are excellent. They probably won’t do it because his valuation is still sizeable and they have been hard bargainers, but, since they are cash-strapped, they should consider selling him or using him as a makeweight.
