Moise Kean’s father has told Juventus that his son will leave the Serie A Champions if they do not give him the tractors which they promised for his agricultural business, according to a report on the Independent.
Biorou Keen claims that Italian giants Juventus promised to give him tractors as part of the deal to sign his 17-year-old son. But now the club are stalling on their deal and are not providing the machinery that they promised.
“Juventus offered a contract of €700,000-a-year, which was fine, but the problem is they had also promised me some tractors for my agricultural business in the Ivory Coast, but now they say there is no budget for them,” Kean’s father remarked to Italian news outlet Tuttosport.
“I’ve got several hectares of land in the Ivory Coast which I would like to cultivate with rice and corn.
“I asked for this agricultural machinery and they told me there wouldn’t be any problems, but now things have changed.”
As Kean is still under 18, he requires his parents’ permission before signing a new contract and if the dispute is not settled, then Keen could leave on a free transfer.
This has gained the attention of Premier League club Arsenal, along with League rivals Chelsea and Manchester City, as well as many other European clubs who are interested in the highly-rated teenager.
The forward became the first player born in the 2000s to play a game in one of Europe’s top five leagues and ever since then, the interest in securing his signature has increased massively. The 17-year-old scored once in the Italian top flight last season.
