Everton will reportedly demand upwards of £40million for Moise Kean this summer with reports suggesting Paris Saint-Germain are keen to sign him on a permanent deal.
The striker struggled hugely at Goodison Park last season, scoring just two goals in 33 appearances for the Toffees before joining the French giants on loan last summer.
He’s shown exactly why the Toffees paid Juventus £29million for him this term, scoring 12 goals in 23 Ligue 1 matches while supporting the likes of Neymar and Kylian Mbappe up front.
Trusted transfer guru Fabrizio Romano said Everton would be willing to depart with their front man if an offer of around £43m (€50m) was made.
Romano tweeted: “Everton are keen to sell Moise Kean in the summer – the negotiations will start around €50m. PSG are working to sign him on a permanent deal but negotiating on the price – Italian clubs would join the race only if PSG won’t find an agreement.”
Last month, French football expert Julien Laurens pointed out how Everton still have the advantage in the negotiations should PSG try to sign him on a permanent deal.
“It was very clever by Everton and [director of football] Marcel Brands not to put any option to buy there because if he hadn’t done well in France he would have come back, then he’d start again,” Laurens told Hawksbee and Rushden.
“Carlo Ancelotti arrived in December where I think he had other priorities other than to get Moise Kean back on form. Maybe Carlo could take on that project if Moise Kean was going back to Everton.
“There’s so much talent there, I don’t really know why it didn’t happen for him at Everton. I think he would succeed anywhere if you gave him the time. Let’s not forget he’s 21 years of age.
“And now Everton can pick the price. PSG don’t have much money to spend in the summer unlike the big clubs as they’re working hard on renewing Neymar and Kylian Mbappe’s contract.
“The idea from PSG’s point of view is they’ll want a good price for him, don’t ask for £50million because that’s not going to happen. Around £30million is a good price, perhaps a bit more because of his age and the good season he’s having.
“Or maybe you loan him again and put in an option to buy for £40m for PSG when they have more money. That’s the way I think PSG will approach it but if Everton want the money they can’t go too high.”
