Everton-focused Twitter account @ToffeeTVEFC recently posted a tweet sharing the alleged news that agent Mino Raiola “is actively looking” to try and take Toffees forward Moise Kean back to Serie A.
This alleged news originally surfaced via Italian publication ‘La Nazione’, as stated by this tweet. A recent report from Sport Witness also cites La Nazione as the original source of this story and claims that the Italian publication has reported that Kean “could be on the move this summer”.
The 20-year-old attacker only joined Everton last August, however, it may be fair to say that Kean has struggled to impress this season at Goodison Park. According to WhoScored.com, Kean has scored just one goal and made just two assists in 706 minutes of Premier League football this season.
The Italy U21 international has earned an average overall rating of just 6.30 in the Premier League this term according to WhoScored. Only two toffees players have earned a lower average overall rating than Kean for Everton in the league this season according to the website.
Some Toffees fans have taken the opportunity to call for Kean to be sold in response to @ToffeeTVEFC’s recent tweet. Read the reactions of some Everton fans to this post in the tweets below.

Surely Everton won't be looking to move Moise Kean back to Italy in the summer…
What is your stance on this one, blues? #efc pic.twitter.com/i6J97nCoCX

What do we think?
It may be fair to say that Kean has not enjoyed a particularly successful season with Everton this term. However, the Italian striker, who is currently valued at £22.5m according to Transfermarkt.co.uk, did show glimpses of his quality last season when he scored six goals in 13 Serie A appearances for Juventus, only five of which were starts.
Considering that Kean is still only 20-years-old, he may deserve more time to prove himself at Goodison Park before calls for him to be sold are truly warranted.
