After a successful loan spell at Paris Saint-Germain last season, Everton let Moise Kean join Juventus on a two-year loan deal last summer.
The striker has five goals and two assists from 32 matches in all competitions and it has not been an exciting season so far for the Toffees owned player.
Juve Dipendenza state the Serie A side plan to sell the 22-year-old in the next window, but this won’t be easy because of the agreement that is in place with the Merseyside club.
Massimiliano Allegri’s side took the Italy international on a loan deal until 2023 and have an obligation to make his stay permanent.
The report states this is ‘not an easy’ situation’ for Juve and they ‘will do everything to resolve’ it so that they can buy him first and then look to sell the frontman in the summer.
Lazio are drawn into the mix as they are looking to bring in a deputy for Ciro Immobile next season. Maurizio Sarri has had to come up with solutions when he had to rest Immobile as he lacked a ‘real alternative’ to his star this term.
Kean can be the ‘perfect solution’ for Lazio and it’s claimed their interest in him seems to be ‘strong’.
In addition, this deal would also be ‘perfect’ for Juve as the Everton owned striker can be used as a bargaining chip to get Sergej Milinković-Savić. This does not mean it would be ‘less complicated’ for Juventus to get the midfielder because Lazio are asking for €70-90m for the Serbian.
Everton would presumably be quite happy to get the money earlier rather than wait a year, as long as Juventus don’t look for a discount.
