The highly-rated forward scored six goals in 13 appearances in helping Juventus claim last season's Serie A title, having made his club debut as a 16-year-old. He made his international debut against Finland in a European Championship qualifier in March, when he became the youngest player to score for Italy since 1958.

"I was convinced to sign because Everton is a club looking to the future and so am I," Kean said. "It has big ambition and I will work very hard to help us fulfil what we want to achieve. I am used to winning and I want to bring this winning attitude to the team. I hope I will be very good on the field and bring the fans joy."
