"I believe I have established a relationship of great respect and sincerity with many players and that I have given a lot to the boys. I have grown fond of many of them, regardless of their character. There is a dialogue and openness with them that goes beyond football. This is what happened with Kean: there was immediate empathy. Sometimes he made me angry, but he is a genuine guy. He is a guy who needs happiness. The club and he will decide his future, but he needs love. And he has found it here. I hope he makes the right choice." These were the words of Raffaele Palladino, Fiorentina coach, two days before the last league game against Udinese, regarding the future of Viola striker Moise Kean.
