Kean’s brother: ‘Sarri didn’t want him’

Start

Giovanni Kean believes his brother Moise had his worst year in 2021 but it served as an important lesson for him. The Juve striker famously left the club to join Everton in 2018 before eventually returning and finding form in recent league games, scoring four in four. Speaking with Tuttosport, Giovanni explained his brothers recent journey and why he wasn’t happy with the move to the Premier League:

“The last year was the most difficult of his career, but it served as a lesson for him. I was sure he would come out of it because he has character and, when he feels confidence, he manages to prove himself.

He has worked on his weight and his head, he’s like a monk, but he is at 70% and still has room for growth, also because he is only 22. In Paris, many phenomenon’s thought he was a goner, but he scored 17 goals in one season.

Everton? Every now and then in recent months he would say to me: ‘Enough, I’m leaving!’ But they were impromptu outbursts due to poor usage. He has never been about to leave and does not intend to, neither now nor in the future.

On the contrary, he has pushed to return to Juve, it’s his home. Allegri was the first to realise his progress. What a delight to see him score a brace at Lazio under the eyes of Sarri, who did not want him. Kean felt very bad about being sold to Everton.”
