Homecoming.
This is the perfect phrase to describe Moise Kean's official return to Juventus from Everton. The 21-year-old returns to the Club, where not only did he take his first steps in professional football, but where he grew up, as a boy and a player, within our youth sector.
Moise is back and he joins us on loan. Below is the official press release:
Born in Vercelli on 28 February 2000, Kean, as we said, featured in Juventus academy between 2010 to 2017.
In the 2016/17 season, a young Kean graduated from the youth team to make his debut with "the greats". To be precise he debuted for the First Team on 19 November 2016, in Juventus-Pescara, where he became the first player born in the 2000s to take the field in Serie A. Just a few months later, in Bologna, he scored his first goal at the age of 17 years and 88 days, to become Juve's second youngest scorer in the league, after Renato Buso (16 years and 304 days) in 1986. Not only that: that goal proved to be the first scored by a player born in 2000s in Europe’s Top 5 leagues.
Moise then moved across to Verona for the 2017/18 season, where he scored four goals in the league, and after another year in Turin, he said goodbye to Juve at the end of the 2018/19 season, in which he played 13 games and scored six goals in the league and one in the Italian Cup. He left with four trophies won, two Scudetti, an Italian Super Cup and an Italian Cup.
After a year at Everton, he joined Paris Saint-Germain last season on loan, where he went on to score 17 goals between Ligue1 (13), Coupe de France and Champions League (three in this competition). To further add to Moise’s excellent stats, he is the second youngest player to reach double-digit goals in Europe’s top-five leagues, behind only Erling Haaland, while he was also able to add the French Super Cup and a National Cup to his cabinet of accolades.
Now he is back home, and we are ready to welcome him back with great pleasure! Welcome back, Moise!
