Raiola visits Juventus, reportedly for Kean, Mkhitaryan

Mino Raiola’s visit to Juventus was to discuss Moise Kean’s contract and Borussia Dortmund’s Henrikh Mkhitaryan,  reports.

The agent appeared in Turin yesterday, leading to a flurry of speculation that he was there to talk about a number of his clients including Paul Pogba, Romelu Lukaku and Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

However, Gazzetta dello Sport today reports that the two players at the centre of the discussion were youngster Moises Kean and Dortmund playmaker Mkhitaryan.

The latter is a long-time target of the Bianconeri and the outlet believes Raiola told Juve sporting director Fabio Paratici that the Armenian is willing to move to Italy.

The Old Lady underlined their interest in the attacking midfielder but the problem remains Dortmund, who consider him indispensable.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
