Club career
Youth career
Kean was first noticed by Renato Biasi, who inserted him in the youth teams of Asti before offering him to Torino.[2] In 2010, however, instead of renewing with the Granata, he was signed by Torino's cross-city rivals Juventus (until a player is of 14 years of age, the contract is annual and in constant renewal).[3][4]Juventus
Kean made his professional debut for Juventus on 19 November 2016, at the age of 16, coming on in the 84th minute for Mario Mandžukić in a 3–0 win over Pescara in Serie A, thus becoming the first player born in the 2000s to compete in one of Europe's four major leagues.[5][6] On 22 November, he became the first player born in the 2000s to feature in a UEFA Champions League match, after being substituted on in the 84th minute of a 3–1 away win over Sevilla.[7] On 27 May 2017, Juventus' final match of the 2016–17 Serie A season, Kean scored his first goal for Juventus, the winning goal of a 2–1 away victory over Bologna, also becoming the first player born in the 2000s to score a goal in one of Europe's five major leagues.[8]Loan to Verona
On 31 August 2017, after extending his contract until 30 June 2020, Kean was loaned to Hellas Verona on a one-year deal.[9][10] On 10 September he made his debut for Verona in Serie A as a substitute, replacing Alex Ferrari in the 46th minute in a 5–0 home defeat against Fiorentina.[11] On 1 October, Kean scored his first goal for Verona in the 87th minute of a 2–2 away draw against Torino.[12]On 28 January 2018, Kean scored his first career Serie A brace in a 4–1 away win against Fiorentina, becoming only the second player born in the 2000s after Pietro Pellegri to have done so.[13][14][15] He totalled 20 competitive appearances and four goals in his season at the club.[16]
