But they are not alone in the race with their North London rivals Tottenham Hotspur also keeping close eyes on the former Everton striking ace.<\/p>\n<p>Despite injuries to Gabriel Jesus and Bukayo Saka, the Gunners opted not to bolster them high up the pitch. Mikel Arteta has deployed Kai Havertz as a \u2018number 9\u2019, but the versatile Germany international has lacked conviction and productivity in the attacking third. While the chase is on for the Premier League silverware, <a href=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/category\/leagues\/english-premier-league\/arsenal\/\">Arsenal<\/a> are expected to splash the cash in the summer to strengthen multiple areas.<\/p>\n<p>Kean spent his youth years with Asti and Torino before joining Juventus. There he made significant strides through their academy ranks and eventually broke into their senior side in 2016 at the age of 16 years, 265 days. He spent the 2017-18 season out on loan at Hellas Verona for regular minutes and the spell helped him impress next year in Turin despite limited gametime. The Toffees roped him in for \u20ac27.5m (plus \u20ac2.5m in add-ons) in the summer of 2019, however, the young attacker failed to attune to the grind and demands of English football.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_319865\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-319865\"><img loading=\"lazy\" data-lazyloaded=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/fiorentina-v-fc-internazionale-serie-a-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Arsenal target Moise Kean in action for Fiorentina\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1710\" srcset=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/fiorentina-v-fc-internazionale-serie-a-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/fiorentina-v-fc-internazionale-serie-a-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/fiorentina-v-fc-internazionale-serie-a-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/fiorentina-v-fc-internazionale-serie-a-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/fiorentina-v-fc-internazionale-serie-a-1536x1026.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/fiorentina-v-fc-internazionale-serie-a-2048x1368.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/fiorentina-v-fc-internazionale-serie-a-750x501.jpg 750w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/fiorentina-v-fc-internazionale-serie-a-1140x762.jpg 1140w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-319865\">FLORENCE, ITALY \u2013 FEBRUARY 6: Moise Kean of ACF Fiorentina reacts during the Serie A match between Fiorentina and FC Internazionale at Stadio Artemio Franchi on February 6, 2025 in Florence, Italy. (Photo by Gabriele Maltinti\/Getty Images)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>A loan spell at Paris St-Germain helped him rediscover his scoring form and Juventus, therefore, signed him back a year later. Although the move did not work out due to form and fitness concerns, Kean has been back in business since August following a \u20ac13m move to Fiorentina. With 19 goals in 28 appearances across competitions, his stakes are high once again amid interest from Premier League heavyweights.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Why Arsenal Should Keep Close Eyes On The Serie A Star<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>At 24, the Azzurri international has yet to reach his full potential. He has a release clause of \u20ac52m in his contract \u2013 a fee well within the spending limit of top-tier English clubs. Arsenal attempted to bring in Ollie Watkins last month. But a \u00a345m bid was rejected by Aston Villa as they already lost Jhon Duran to Al Nassr for \u00a370m. 21-year-old RB Leipzig sensation Benjamin Sesko is also a target for \u00a360m, but they might find it difficult to snap up Alexander Isak from Newcastle United considering his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.football.london\/arsenal-fc\/transfer-news\/arsenal-can-complete-alexander-isak-30746464\">valuation<\/a> of more than \u00a3150m.<\/p>\n<p>The Gunners have already committed a fee of around \u00a352m for Martin Zubimendi upon the completion of the current campaign. Kean might not be the first choice among the rumoured targets, but he could be a quality alternative if they fail to land the preferred names.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><img data-lazyloaded=\"1\" alt=\"Pratyay Maitra\" src=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/litespeed\/avatar\/99caba795be581dd389be17783993c42.jpg?ver=1739341133\" srcset=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/litespeed\/avatar\/42284f8e6bd8d7f416c18e12e1851881.jpg?ver=1739341132 2x\" height=\"80\" width=\"80\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"><\/p>\n<div>\n<h3> <a href=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/author\/4thpratyay\/\"> Pratyay Maitra\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/h3>\n<p> A sports enthusiast who reads, breathes, as well as dreams (mostly) about football and attempts to share his views with the fanatics by jotting down a few words.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If a report from the Italian outlet TuttoSport is believed to be true, Arsenal are weighing up a summer swoop for Moise Kean.
