Everton fans react to Champions League display from Moise Kean

On-loan Everton star Moise Kean played during Paris Saint-Germain’s memorable Champions League win last night – and some of the club’s fans on Twitter have responded by claiming they want to keep him at Goodison Park next season.

Kean, 20, was sent out on a season-long loan in the summer and many have been surprised to see him become an important player at French giants PSG.

He started and scored on Tuesday night during PSG’s emphatic 4-1 win away at Barcelona.

The Italian youngster is a centre-forward that usually plays down the middle, but has operated as a right-winger in recent weeks for Mauricio Pochettino’s team and impressed in that role against Barcelona.

He’s scored just four goals in 37 appearances in an Everton shirt.

But the striker has been transformed at PSG, netting 14 times in just 25 games for the Ligue 1 giants.

A selection of Everton supporters on social media were stunned to see Kean delivering on the biggest club stage against Barcelona and would like to see him get another opportunity on Merseyside, with one claiming they can’t make the mistake of letting him leave permanently.

The in-form attacker will return to the Premier League in the summer and he’ll still have three years remaining on his contract with Carlo Ancelotti’s side, so it’ll be interesting to see if they want to try reintegrate him to the squad.
