According to the latest Moise Kean transfer news, Fiorentina are set to entertain a surprise contender for their star striker.
English Premier League outfit Fulham has joined the race for Kean. Marco Silva’s side has endured a tough opening first-half to the 2025-26 campaign.
The west Londoners are currently four points above the drop zone after 15 games. Similar to I Viola, the Cottagers want to rid their relegation fears and believe an EPL return for Kean will help them achieve their aim.

Latest Moise Kean Transfer News
From Fulham’s point of view, Barcelona’s interest in Moise Kean will be extremely difficult to contest with. It’s understood the Fiorentina forward’s entourage has already held talks with the Spanish giants.
Financially, Barca will be able to offer a much more attractive package than what the Cottagers could provide. Especially if that is the main factor behind Kean’s future.
A surprise move to Craven Cottage can’t be ruled out entirely, though. Kean has played in England’s elite before and although he was extremely underwhelming, the Azzurri striker has unfinished business to navigate.
Whether the 25-year-old wants to pursue that avenue yet remains to be seen. There’s no denying that if the I Viola star did move back to the UK, he would become the focal point of Marco Silva’s attack ahead of Raul Jimenez and Rodrigo Muniz.
Who Could Replace Moise Kean At Fiorentina?
If Moise Kean was to trade Tuscany for London, Fiorentina have targeted Jeremie Boga as a potential replacement. Although not an out-an-out striker, the Ivorian can play in a range of positions in attack.
Highly-rated Brazilian Eguinaldo is also a consideration. The Shakhtar Donetsk winger could be available for around €12million. He is keen to move in the January transfer window to test himself in one of Europe’s top leagues.
Even AC Milan’s Santiago Gimenez is a strong candidate. Although he doesn’t want to leave the San Siro – a claim backed up by his agent – his struggles for the Rossoneri may influence a loan switch to Florence.
Elsewhere, Milan’s Christopher Nkunku is also on I Viola’s radar. The Frenchman is widely expected to part ways with head coach Max Allegri just months after moving to the Diavolo.
