Manchester United Transfer News
Date: June 30, 2025
Manchester United have added Fiorentina striker Moise Kean to their shortlist as the summer transfer window shows no signs of slowing down. With Matheus Cunha already signed and Bryan Mbeumo in their sights, the Red Devils will now trigger Kean's £44 million release clause—which is only available until July 15.
In a report by ESPN, the Italian international is open to making the move to Old Trafford as he seeks a new challenge outside Serie A.
Why Moise Kean?
- ✅ Versatility – Can be used centrally or wide in a front three.
- ✅ Young profile – At only 23, Kean has years ahead to develop under new boss Ruben Amorim.
- ✅ Serie A success – 11 goals last season with Fiorentina, demonstrating his quality in top-flight football.
Kean fits the bill for Amorim's tactical blueprint and gives United another dynamic attacking player following the signing of Cunha.
Amorim's Frontline Rebuild
Manchester United have announced Brazilian striker Matheus Cunha already, with talks for Brentford's Bryan Mbeumo at an advanced stage. Kean is considered a back-up plan if the Mbeumo deal runs late, but sources close to United believe both strikers could arrive depending on outgoings.
Outgoings to Fund Incomings?
To balance Financial Fair Play (FFP), Manchester United will listen to offers for:
- Jadon Sancho – still out of favor and likely to leave.
- Anthony Martial – injuries and contract situation see him heading towards the exit.
- Mason Greenwood – the club are still determining his future with loan interest.
This sale of a player could free up funds to activate Kean's £44m clause, which expires in a little over a fortnight.
What Happens Next?
July 15 – Deadline to activate Kean's clause
Risk – Missing deadline leaves door open for clubs like Juventus or PSG to swoop
Reward – Signing Kean now allows preseason integration
United's new transfer model under Amorim is clear: speed, youth, and versatility.
Conclusion
With a deadline looming and competition rife in the Premier League, Manchester United are swinging big to rebuild their attacking front. The potential capture of Moise Kean would mark the club's third major forward signing this window.
Whether they will make it before the deadline will be seen in due time. For now, all eyes are on July 15.
