Barcelona ‘very serious’ about signing €40 million-rated Italian speedster – report

Barcelona are “very serious” about securing the services of Moise Kean from Fiorentina, according to a report from SPORT.

As the summer transfer window approaches, Barça’s financial situation and the potential for significant player sales will dictate their movements in the market.

While the club has primarily been searching for a new right-back, the possibility of adding a winger has not been ruled out, and Kean is now firmly on their radar following his standout performances in Italy.

The 25-year-old has enjoyed an impressive season in Serie A, netting 23 goals in 39 appearances for Fiorentina.

After facing challenges at Juventus and Everton, Kean seems to have found his rhythm in Florence, making a significant impact in the league.

Barcelona, who have been keeping a close watch on his progress, are now considering him as a potential addition to their attack.

Despite his impressive form, signing Kean is not without its hurdles. The Italian international has a release clause set at €50 million, a fee that may be beyond Barcelona’s financial reach given their ongoing struggles with financial fair play.

However, there remains hope that Fiorentina could be willing to negotiate the fee down, especially if Barcelona can offer the right incentives or generate funds through player sales.

Barcelona’s need for fresh attacking options has become more pressing with Robert Lewandowski turning 37 this summer.

While Ferran Torres and Dani Olmo remain in the squad, the club is looking to strengthen their forward line to stay competitive on all fronts.

Adding a dynamic player like Kean, who is in the prime of his career, could provide valuable depth and a new attacking option for the coming seasons.

While Barcelona’s interest in Kean is strong, much will depend on the club’s ability to manage their financial challenges.

The €50 million clause is steep, but with negotiations and potential player exits, there is a possibility that Barcelona could land the winger at a more reasonable price.
