Manchester United is reportedly monitoring Fiorentina forward Moise Kean with a potential move in the upcoming summer transfer window.
The 25-year-old has seen a significant resurgence in form since joining Fiorentina last summer, registering 17 goals and three assists in 30 Serie A matches, rediscovering his goalscoring ability.
This impressive revival has attracted attention across Europe, with Manchester United listed among the clubs interested in signing him.
According to reports from Foot Mercato, the Italy international has been included on United`s transfer shortlist as they continue their search for a new central striker.
Other forwards on the club`s radar reportedly include Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting Lisbon, Liam Delap of Ipswich Town, and Victor Osimhen from Napoli, who is currently on loan at Galatasaray.
Kean is considered a potentially more accessible target due to a £42.5 million release clause in his contract with Fiorentina.
However, this release clause is only active for a limited period this summer, specifically from July 1st to July 15th.
United could face competition for his signature from Bayern Munich, who have been tracking the player throughout the season and are guaranteed a spot in next season`s Champions League.
In contrast, Manchester United`s qualification for the next season`s Champions League currently depends on them winning the Europa League.
Kean`s current form is a significant improvement from his time at Everton, where he managed only four goals in 39 appearances over a disappointing four-year spell after joining from Juventus in 2019.
He was loaned out to Paris Saint-Germain and his former club Juventus, eventually making a permanent return to Juve in 2023 for just one season before moving to Fiorentina.
Despite interest in Kean, Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting Lisbon is reportedly considered United`s primary transfer target this summer.
However, Sporting faces strong competition for Gyokeres from Arsenal, who are also actively seeking a top-tier striker.
The Swedish international has impressive statistics, having accumulated 52 goals and 12 assists in 49 games.
Liam Delap is expected to be another sought-after player, attracting interest from numerous Premier League clubs.
Similarly, Victor Osimhen`s future at Napoli remains uncertain, and he is highly likely to attract considerable interest from top European clubs.
