Father: Raiola not Kean’s agent

By Football Italia staff

The father of Juventus teen Moise Kean claims “I’ve never signed anything” to make Mino Raiola his agent as “I’d have chosen another if it were up to me.”

Raiola has already come under fire this week for his roles in Gianluigi Donnarumma’s refusal to sign a new contract with Milan and Paul Pogba’s world-record return to Manchester United from Juve last summer, the latter of which is now the subject of a FIFA investigation.

“Juve offered my son a contract worth €700,000 a year,” Biorou told Tuttosport.

“But in the past, when I prevented Raiola from taking Moise to England at [Juve’s] request, I was promised help when returning to Africa.

“In the Ivory Coast, I own several hectares of land, which I’d like to start growing rice and corn on.

“I’m an agronomist, I’ve worked in rice paddies and I asked for agricultural equipment.

“They told me that there was no problem. However, the other day, Juve’s lawyer contacted me to tell me that the contract offer had been revoked because my requests were out of their means.

“Once Moise becomes an adult, Juve are likely to lose him for nothing if he doesn’t sign a contract soon.

“Raiola says he’s [Kean’s] agent, but I’ve never signed anything. Indeed, if it was up to me, I’d have chosen another agent.”
