Former Everton forward Moise Kean is on their radar with the Red Devils looking to bring in a new No 9 following the struggles of Rasmus Hojlund. Kean made little impact during three seasons at Goodison Park, managing just four goals in 39 games between 2019 and 2022. However, he has undergone a career resurgence in the time since after spells with PSG and Juventus. He now plays his football for Fiorentina, where he scored 19 goals and provided three assists in 32 Serie A appearances last season and helped the club secure a European place. The Italian forward is understood to have a £44million release clause and Corriere dello Sport report that it can only be activated during the first two weeks of July.

United are in the market for a new striker, with Rasmus Hojlund having underwhelmed since his big-money move to Old Trafford. Sporting Lisbon’s Victor Gyokeres, a target who previously worked with Ruben Amorim, is said to prefer a move to Arsenal, while Liam Delap has already opted to join Chelsea over United. Kean’s first spell in the Premier League with Everton failed to live up to expectations. Signed as a highly-rated youngster, he struggled to adapt to life in England and was criticised for his attitude. His struggles were perhaps best summed up when then-interim manager Duncan Ferguson substituted him just 18 minutes after bringing him on during a match against United at Old Trafford.
