Allegri warns starlet: ‘Juventus better than Arsenal and Man City’
Kean, 16, is probably the brightest prospect of Juventus’ academy and the Old Lady is trying hard to extend his contract at the club amid interest of Manchester City and Arsenal.
The Premier League giants are tempting the promising Italian starlet with huge contract offers, whilst Juventus can only put on the table a three-year, € 1 million-a-year deal. No Serie A club can offer a contract longer than three years to U-18 players.
Talking to media after yesterday’s Pescara clash, Allegri said: “Kean must understand that there is not better team than Juventus to develop, he shouldn’t focus on money, but on his own growth only.”
The club’s director of sport Giuseppe Marotta had made similar claims before the game adding that he doesn’t even know who the player’s agent is despite Mino Raiola being known to be the representative of the promising Italian striker.
