In a recent report, Calciomercato stated that Everton are in the running to sign Juventus midfielder Weston McKennie this summer. It has been claimed that the Toffees have made a move to bring the United States international to Merseyside this off-season.
McKennie’s Impressive Form In Italian Football Last Season
McKennie had an encouraging campaign at the Turin club after he put in a series of impressive displays for them in the middle of the park. The 25-year-old picked up ten assists in 38 appearances for Juve last season across various competitions.
The former Bundesliga talent proved his worth at both ends of the field as he averaged 1.4 tackles, 0.5 interceptions, 1.8 clearances, 0.7 shots, 1.2 key passes and 0.5 dribbles per game in Serie A. He was even tidy when distributing the ball from midfield based on his pass success rate of 80.8% in the Italian first division (stats via whoscored).
