Barcelona remain locked in a tense title race as the 2024/25 season enters its critical final stretch.
With just a few months left in the campaign, the Catalan giants are still unbeaten in 2025 and continue to juggle La Liga ambitions with a Copa del Rey final looming.
The squad has shown resilience under pressure, especially following recent wins against Atletico Madrid and Girona.
However, questions persist over long-term depth in attack, especially as Robert Lewandowski approaches the twilight of his career.
That’s why the club is now actively assessing reinforcements, both on the wings and centrally, ahead of a crucial summer window.
Barcelona have expressed strong interest in Fiorentina forward Moise Kean, who has reignited his career in Serie A after a string of underwhelming spells at top clubs.
According to SPORT, initial contact has been made between the two parties as Barcelona seek financially viable options to refresh their frontline.
Moise Kean, just 25 years old, has scored 24 goals this season across all competitions, establishing himself as a key man in Florence.
A €52 million release clause becomes active between July 1 and 15, giving interested clubs a short window to bypass negotiations with Fiorentina.
Barcelona see him as a flexible attacker, capable of playing either through the middle or off the left, which makes him an appealing alternative to more expensive targets like Luis Diaz or Alexander Isak.
Despite Fiorentina’s reluctance to lose him, Kean’s relatively low salary of €2.2 million per season could work in Barcelona’s favour, particularly if he’s open to a raise and a step up in prestige.
Financially, much hinges on how Barcelona navigates their revenue challenges – particularly the ongoing discussions around VIP box agreements and their impact on next season’s wage cap.
If those issues are resolved in time, Moise Kean could be a realistic and cost-effective option for a team eager to evolve without breaking the bank.
For now, Barcelona will keep monitoring the striker’s situation closely while prioritising short-term objectives on the pitch.
