Manchester United will reportedly look to sign 25-year-old resurgent Italian international Moise Kean from Serie A club Fiorentina in the summer transfer window.
According to a report by Gazzetta dello Sport, as relayed by Sport Witness, Moise Kean is the subject of interest from Manchester United. The Red Devils are eager to bolster their offensive unit in the summer transfer window by signing a striker. So, the 25-year-old Fiorentina centre-forward has emerged as a target for the struggling Premier League giants.
The Red Devils have intensified their efforts to sign the resurgent striker, and he prefers to move to Old Trafford instead of a Saudi Pro League club. Kean will receive a more lucrative proposal from the Middle East, with Al-Qadsiah ready to trigger his release clause of €52 million and offer him €15 million-a-year wages. However, he wants to join Manchester United in the summer transfer window.
Moise Kean and his resurgence
Moise Kean has established himself as one of the best strikers in Serie A since joining Fiorentina from Juventus last summer. The 25-year-old had lost his way after ending his first spell with Juventus, as he could not make his mark at Everton or Paris Saint-Germain. However, moving to Florence has resurrected his stuttering career.
The resurgent Italian international was splendid in the 2024/25 season, amassing 25 goals and three assists in 44 appearances across all competitions. Kean’s progress has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several well-known clubs across Europe. Manchester United will be among the prospective suitors vying for his signature in the summer transfer window.
Premier League move on the horizon?
Manchester United’s interest in Moise Kean is understandable. The Red Devils are combing the market for a striker heading into the summer transfer window after Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee failed to make their mark in front of the goal in the 2024/25 season. So, several strikers have emerged on Manchester United’s radar.
While Kean is also a viable option, recent reports have claimed that he is not a top striker target for Manchester United. However, the struggling Premier League giants have intensified their efforts to sign the resurgent Italian international in the summer transfer window.
Meanwhile, Kean would prefer to join Manchester United instead of a Saudi Pro League club. So, while Al-Qadsiah will be ready to trigger his release clause of €52 million and offer him €15 million-a-year wages, that might not be enough to convince the 25-year-old Fiorentina striker to snub Manchester United.
