Everton striker Moise Kean joins campaign to support fight against coronavirus in Italy

Everton striker Moise Kean has helped buy respirator machines and face masks for hospitals in Italy as they continue to battle the coronavirus pandemic.

The Blues star joined other players in Mino Raiola's football agency in donating to the "We Are One Against #Covid-19" campaign - which is already planning to broaden into other countries.

Raiola posted a video to his Instagram page featuring a number of footballers involved in his agency all sharing a poignant message as the COVID-19 outbreak continues to affect the world.

His post read: "You can also be a part of this initiative to help Italy and other countries. We can win this game as a team!"

More than 10,000 people have died from coronavirus in Italy – the highest number of any country in the world.

Premier League football has been suspended until at least April 30, with Everton's players working on individual training plans from home while they are self-isolating.

During that time, a large number of the squad and staff have been taking part in the Blue Family campaign, and Kean is no exception.

On Mother’s Day, the 20-year-old called a supporter who is self-isolating during the pandemic due to her being in remission from cancer treatment.
