Supporters of Everton have been reacting to a transfer report which has touted the possible departure of Moise Kean.
According to Calciomercato, as cited by Sport Witness, the Italian forward has been frustrated with his lack of playing time this season and a switch to AS Roma is possible (via Everton News Feed), which fans reacted to.
?Roma are interested in signing Moise Kean. Kean is apparently frustrated with his lack of playing time this season. If Everton decided to sell they do not intend to make a loss and would ask for a minimum of €28M (Source – Football Italia) pic.twitter.com/Z34u4DlLmp

Obviously can’t be 100% sure, but his reaction to his limited football time has been first class. No public hissy fits, or drama.
His performance against Newcastle was the best I’ve seen from a CF since Lukaku. Deserves a starting berth alongside DCL for 5-10 games.

If a £25 million bid arrived for Moise Kean in the next transfer window, would you accept it?Yes, that would be a solid deal
No, we need to keep hold of him

According to the same report, a possible ‘stumbling block’ to the move may be that the Toffees are not willing to accept an offer lower than the €28 million (£24.6m) that was paid to seal his arrival from Juventus, which Roma could not afford (via Sport Witness).
This season, Kean has featured in just 674 Premier League minutes for the Toffees over 22 appearances (per Transfermarkt), however, fans have seen enough to have made their minds up on the 20-year-old.
I’d swap him for a prime totti, failing that I’d like him to stay

If we sell it will come back to haunt us because the lad has talent

I’d sell if we could make a small profit or get money back. Don’t see him getting in the team ahead of Richy and DCL.

We need to keep Kean, exceptional potential, very good back up to DCL and Richarlison and can play up top should Richarlison need to be moved to the wing

Hahahahahahah please take him

What do we think?
As can be judged from the responses from Everton supporters, it is clear to see that there is a divide between those who want Kean to stay and those who are keen for him to leave.
However, with a 6.3/10 average rating making the 20-year-old the third-worst performer for Everton in the Premier League (per WhoScored), it has been a poor season for Kean, whichever way you look at it.
