Juventus coach Allegri denies seeking Kean sale

Juventus coach Max Allegri insists he doesn't want to see Moise Kean sold.

The Italy striker has been linked with a move away this month.

But Allegri said today: "I see Kean every day here, we are very happy with him, he is a player that Juventus is counting on a lot.

"He did very well for six games despite not scoring, then I know that attackers are judged by the goals they score.

"The other day I read a comment about (Kenan) Yildiz, it was said that if he hadn't scored he wouldn't have had a good match and instead technically he played an extraordinary match.

"For me, goal or no goal wouldn't have changed my opinion."

Allegri also said: "I was talking about balance in football, something can go good or bad. I have never commented on the transfer market and I never will, especially now that our priority is the second half of the season. We are entering the phase that counts."
