Sky Sports pundit Charlie Nicholas says that Everton summer signing Moise Kean is talking like he already wants to go back to Italy.

He sent a message to Marco Silva ahead of the weekend clash against Norwich which covered the fortunes of his big summer signing up front, who has struggled since his arrival from Juventus.

Nicholas said of Silva: “His breakdown of the last away game suggested he doesn’t seem to feel pressure at all – what a load of rubbish! I’ll tell you the reason why you feel pressure Mr Silva, in the last few games you have changed the team on a regular basis – you do not know your best starting team.

“Moise Kean sounds as though he may be heading back to Italy, Cenk Tosun is back in the starting line-up, Richarlison is delivering with his goals and I always think he will get you double figures, Theo Walcott has been alright, but Gylfi Sigurdsson has been in and out.”

TBR’s View – Everton promised to look after Kean and his talent makes him worth persisting with

Marcel Brands promised Kean and his mother (@Everton) upon signing for Everton that they would look after the striker.

And he is one of Europe’s best young strikers in terms of talent, which makes him worth sticking with through a tricky start to his Toffees career.

He isn’t the first player, especially a young one, not to take instantly to a new country and league and with Everton still searching for a prolific replacement for Romelu Lukaku, Kean still represents their best bet.
