However, the anticipated arrival of Kean at the Wanda Metropolitano faces a significant hurdle – the potential departure of Ángel Correa. Romano highlights that the success of Kean’s transfer hinges entirely on the resolution of Correa’s discussions with Saudi Pro League side Al-Ittihad.

Correa, the dynamic frontman for Atlético Madrid, is currently engaged in talks with Al-Ittihad over a substantial move to the Middle East. Despite the ongoing negotiations, an agreement on the transfer fee between the Spanish capital club and the Jeddah-based outfit has not been finalized.

The intricate nature of this transfer web means that Atlético, Juventus, and Kean are collectively in a holding pattern, awaiting the outcome of Correa’s potential move. The scenario underscores the interconnectedness of football transfers, where one player’s departure can trigger a domino effect on incoming transfers.
