Tottenham are aiming to land Fiorentina star Moise Kean in the summer

Tottenham Hotspur are looking to bolster their attack in the summer after enduring a tough campaign. The Lilywhites have just not managed to grind out positive results this season and it is certain that new players will be added to the ranks in the transfer window. Daniel Levy needs to make sure that the club generates enough funds to bring in new players.

For that, the North London club will have to cash in on underperforming players. Many players have struggled to step up when needed for Ange Postecoglou, and they need to be sold to make room for new arrivals. Backup striker Richarlison is one of the players that has just not got going under Big Ange. The Brazil international has struggled to stay fit and has fallen down the pecking order at N17.

Club captain Heung-Min Son is another player that has not lived up to his expectations. The South Korea international has not performed consistently and has lost his place in the starting eleven in recent weeks. The fans have also felt frustrated with his performances and believe that the winger is way past his best now.

Tottenham look to sign Fiorentina striker Moise Kean

Tottenham are looking to add a striker for next season. The Lilywhites need to bring in a quality player who will compete with Dominic Solanke up top and provide a different dynamic to the attack. With Richarlison leaving N17 in the summer, it is likely that Daniel Levy will look to sign a quality forward to fill the attacking void left behind by the Brazil international.

It is an open secret that Tottenham are interested in signing Moise Kean from Fiorentina. The Lilywhites had also sent scouts to watch the Italian striker play in a couple of games earlier this season. Spurs are looking to activate the €52million release clause in Kean’s contract and bring him to N17 in the summer. The 25-year-old is open to switch clubs as he decides on his future.

However, Tottenham are not the only ones interested in signing the prolific striker. As per Foot Marcato, Manchester United have also entered the race to sign Moise Kean. The Red Devils are looking to bolster their attack in the summer and want to bring in the Italian to increase the chances of competing for trophies next season under Ruben Amorim.

Daniel Levy will need to act quick if he wants to land the Fiorentina star at N17. Signing Moise Kean would mean that Dominic Solanke’s spot in the starting eleven would not be a guarantee. The England international has been the main striker for the Lilywhites this season and it looks like that might in jeopardy once Kean comes in.

The 25-year-old would also provide a different dynamic to the attack under Ange Postecoglou. The Italian tends to utilise his explosive pace well to get into goalscoring positions. Kean also tends use his height well and is an aerial threat in the box. His link-up play is also very crucial at Fiorentina and it would prove to be useful for Ange Postecoglou’s setup as well.
