Ex-mentor confident Kean can still make it with Everton

A former mentor of Everton striker Moise Kean believes he can still make it in England.

Renato Biasi was youth director at Kean's hometown club of Asti and helped secure the player a spot in Torino's academy.

He told Europa Calcio: "He is still very young and had arrived in a completely new environment for him and where a different language was first spoken.

"Hopefully it's just a transition season and will recover.

"Otherwise he runs the risk of getting lost, as has happened to many other kids. It has all the technical qualities to do well . "

He added: "With Ancelotti it can certainly be facilitated compared to the previous coach (Marco Silva).

"But the question remains another: since the youth days, Moise was used to being the best of all, was pampered and was considered the phenomenon. But then you have to face other realities and things change."
