EXPERT TAKE

ESPN's Mark Ogden looks astatine the chances of Man United signing Fiorentina's Moise Kean.

It is nary concealed that Manchester United are attempting to motion a proven halfway guardant during the summertime window, but it would instrumentality a batch of knock-backs and missed targets for Ruben Amorim to extremity up with Kean arsenic the team's caller No. 9.

Having already missed retired connected Liam Delap, who completed a £30m transportation from Ipswich to Chelsea earlier this period aft rejecting a determination to Old Trafford, United are assessing their options and Sporting CP's Viktor Gyokeres and Eintracht Frankfurt's Hugo Ekitike are some nether consideration. As it stands, the outgo of a woody for either Gyokeres oregon Ekitike would beryllium excessively precocious for United, who are continuing to absorption connected completing a determination for Brentford guardant Bryan Mbeumo.

But portion United are acceptable to see a assortment of targets, Kean's nonaccomplishment to marque a people astatine Everton is conscionable 1 of the reasons that the Italy planetary would beryllium mode down the club's shortlist. The 25-year-old managed conscionable 4 goals successful 39 appearances during his four-year stint astatine Goodison Park, which was interrupted by indebtedness spells astatine Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus.

After seeing some Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee conflict for goals since leaving Atalanta and Bologna respectively for United implicit the past 2 summers, the nine hierarchy volition beryllium reluctant to instrumentality to Italy for a striker owed to concerns implicit the spot of contention successful the once-powerful Italian apical flight.

It is apt that United's sanction is simply being utilized to enactment unit connected Saudi Pro League broadside Al Qadsiah to formalize their involvement successful the player.
