Softfootball have reliably learned that Manchester United are in contact to sign Fiorentina forward Moise Kean this summer as they continue their search for a new striker.
According to Italian outlet Corriere dello Sport, United are “regularly in touch” with Fiorentina as they monitor the situation of former Everton forward Moise Kean, who has finally started to live up to his potential with the Serie A side over the past season.
It’s also worth pointing out that Kean’s departure is hardly a fait accompli. Fiorentina has done right by him, giving him both the platform to produce his best season and the support to deal with off-pitch issues.
With the World Cup looming, the Moose may also want to stay in Florence for another year rather than riding the pine abroad in order to keep hold of his starting job for Italy.
Softfootball had reported that the Red Devils have only made one major summer signing so far, with Brazilian forward Matheus Cunha arriving from Wolves in a deal worth around £62.5m.
Bryan Mbeumo could be the next through the door with Man United attempting to agree a fee with Brentford for weeks, as the Bees stand firm on their valuation of the forward.
