Fiorentina’s striker is one of the best signings in Europe today, following his brilliant performances this season.
The 24-year-old striker has scored 16 in Serie A and 24 overall, including cup matches and Italian national matches.
His brilliant form has attracted the interest of top clubs such as Barcelona and some Premier League clubs.
According to Gazzetta.it, the player is Moise Kean.
Fiorentina purchased Kean last summer for a mere €13 million plus €5 million in bonuses, but his worth has more than doubled with his phenomenal performances.
His lightning speed, ruthless finishing, and power have made him an indispensable asset for the Viola, but keeping him after this season will be a challenge.
Barcelona, especially, considers him as a potential substitute for Robert Lewandowski, 35 who is nearing the end of his career.
Even with his €52 million release clause, Barcelona is set to make an offer.
Fiorentina will do everything they can to retain him, but they understand they won’t be able to do so if serious offers are presented to them.
Kean’s turnaround has been phenomenal, particularly after inconsistent periods at Everton and Juventus.
He is now making a name for himself as one of the deadliest strikers in Italy.
The coming months will be determinative as the clubs prepare for the summer transfer window.
Fiorentina prefers to keep hold of Kean, but in the waiting room are Barcelona and English giants.
A big transfer is hard to refuse, so for now the attention will still be on his performances, but the rumors surrounding his transfer are only going to increase.
