Juventus striker Moise Kean is reportedly on the verge of securing a loan move to Atletico Madrid.
Sky Sport Italia, Sportitalia and more are all confident the two clubs are down to the details and this is a solution that was top of the wish list for Kean.
The Italy international has dropped down the pecking order in Turin following the emergence of youth academy talent Kenan Yildiz.
He is seeking more regular playing time ahead of Italy’s participation in the EURO 2024 tournament.
Several options were mentioned, including Fiorentina and Monza, but Kean always had his heart set on Atletico Madrid.
It is going to be a dry loan without an option to make it permanent at the end of the season.
That means Kean must first extend his current contract with Juventus, which only runs to June 2025.
This will represent the Italian’s third stint abroad after Paris Saint-Germain and Everton.
Meanwhile, Juventus have officially sent Marley Aké on loan to Swiss side Yverdon for the rest of the season.
