Moise Bioty Kean (born 28 February 2000) is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Juventus. In November 2016, he became the first player born in the 2000s to make an appearance in Italy's Serie A and the UEFA Champions League.
Born in Vercelli to Ivorian parents, Kean was first noticed by Renato Biasi, who inserted him in the youth teams of Asti before offering him to Torino. In 2010, however, instead of renewing with the Granata, he was signed by Juventus (until a player is of 14 years of age, the contract is annual and in constant renewal).
Kean made his professional debut for Juventus on 19 November 2016, at the age of 16, coming on in the 84th minute for Mario Mandžukić in a 3–0 win over Pescara in Serie A, thus becoming the first player born in the 2000s to compete in one of Europe's four major leagues. On 22 November, he became the first player born in the 2000s to feature in a UEFA Champions League match, substituted on in the 84th minute of a 3–1 away win over Sevilla.
Since 2015, Kean has represented Italy at under-15 and under-17 level, scoring a total of six goals in 18 appearances for both youth sides. Although born in Italy, he remains eligible to play for both the Italy and Ivory Coast senior national teams, as his father is from the latter country.
