Manchester United have stepped up their pursuit Moise Kean and are plotting a possible bid for the Fiorentina forward this summer, according to reports in Italy.<\/p>\n

Kean has managed to get his career back on track over the last 12 months at Fiorentina having endured difficult spells with both Everton and Juventus.<\/p>\n

The 25-year-old racked up 19 goals and three assists across an exceptional debut season for Florence-based outfit in the Italian top flight \u2013 and was subsequently named in the Serie A Team of the Season.<\/p>\n

However, speculation has been mounting that Kean could be set to move on from Fiorentina, with the allure of the Premier League representing a \u2018real danger\u2019 for the club, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport.<\/p>\n

The report suggests United have \u2018reappeared\u2019 for Kean \u2018in the last few hours\u2019 and Old Trafford bosses are monitoring the situation with increasing interest while \u2018setting their sights\u2019 on a potential deal.<\/p>\n

A release clause in Kean\u2019s contract at Fiorentina means he will be available for a fee of \u20ac52million (\u00a344.5m) between July 1-15, which has put the Red Devils on red alert.<\/p>\n

Saudi Pro League outfit Al-Qadsiah have also been credited with a strong interest in Kean and could rival United for the ex-Everton attacker over the coming weeks and months.<\/p>\n

Kean has not ruled out the possibility that he could stay on in Florence, though, and Fiorentina have made it clear they do not want to lose their star forward in private discussions with the Italy international.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s claimed Kean is currently on vacation and is in no hurry to make any sudden decisions over his future.<\/p>\n

Kean\u2019s current deal, which he signed upon arrival at Fiorentina, runs through to June 2029.<\/p>\n

United have set out their stall this summer on the back of a wretched 2024\/25 campaign, in which club missed out on Champions League qualification and finished with their worst-ever points total in the Premier League.<\/p>\n

Determined to strengthen Ruben Amorim\u2019s misfiring attack, the Red Devils wrapped up a \u00a362.5million deal with Wolves to make Matheus Cunha their first signing of the transfer window.<\/p>\n

Brentford forward Bryan Mbeumo has also been heavily linked with a move to United, with the Cameroon international ready to turn down Tottenham in favour of a switch to the Theatre of Dreams.<\/p>\n

\u2018It\u2019s a bit new for me, I would say, but that can be the life of a footballer. You need to accept it,\u2019 Mbeumo told Sky Sports when asked about interest from United and Spurs.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, former United defender Rio Ferdinand has encouraged the club to explore a possible deal for wantaway Napoli striker Victor Osimhen.<\/p>\n

Asked who he would like to see join United this summer, Ferdinand said on his Rio Ferdinand Presents YouTube channel: \u2018No.9, they already know who I want. The comments know, the people know who I want, who I would go and get: Osimhen!<\/p>\n

\u2018It looks like he\u2019s turned down Al-Hilal\u2026 he must be waiting for Manchester United.<\/p>\n

\u2018I don\u2019t know if Manchester United are going to come. That\u2019s the problem.\u2019<\/p>\n
