Man United’s striker woes have been no secret this season.
None of United’s players managed to hit double digits in the Premier League this season, emphasising the need for more dynamic forward options.
Bruno Fernandes often proved to be the talisman for the Red Devils, but was so often seen to be visibily frustrated with what was in front of him.
Ruben Amorim’s side only won 1 of their last 9 games, and slumped to 15th in the Premier League table.
Reinforcement’s are inevitable this summer, all over the park.
One area of serious concern is the lack of a clinical number 9, with Harry Maguire often used as the target man during times of need this season.
However, United may be about to solve a number of their forward issues following recent reports in Italy.
It’s been claimed by Sportmediaset that Man United have set their sights on Fiorentina striker Moise Kean.
Ruben Amorim’s side are ready to trigger the €52m release clause, which is only active in the first two weeks of July.
Moise Kean enjoyed something of a redemption arc this season for Fiorentina, scoring 19 goals in 32 Serie A games.
The former wonderkid finally looks like fulfilling the potential he showed at a young age.
The Italian has had a short stint in the Premier League before.
Following a breakthrough season at Juventus in 2018-19, Kean joined Everton for €27.5m, however struggled for form at Goodison Park.
Kean would become the third striker signed by United from the Serie A in consecutive summers, following Rasmus Hojlund in 2023 and Joshua Zirkzee in 2024.
United desperately need a centre forward this summer, but is Moise Kean the answer for Ruben Amorim?
Or will he be swallowed up like those before him…
