The race for Serie A’s top scorer title has taken an unexpected turn, with two Italian strikers leading the charge. Mateo Retegui, fresh off a four-goal haul against Verona, sits atop the charts with 20 league goals. Hot on his heels is Moise Kean, who has netted 15 times for Fiorentina and looks to add to his tally in Monday’s clash against Inter Milan, a team he recently punished with a brilliant brace.
Calciomercato report how this all-Italian duel is music to the ears of national team coach Luciano Spalletti, who now finds himself with two prolific strikers at the peak of their careers. Kean’s resurgence, in particular, has caught the eye of several Premier League clubs.
Despite a previously underwhelming spell with Everton, Kean’s current form at Fiorentina under coach Raffaele Palladino has showcased his true potential. His physical and technical qualities have attracted serious interest from Arsenal, Tottenham, and Aston Villa. While the transfer window is still months away, the interest from these clubs is considered concrete.
For now, Kean remains focused on his performances for Fiorentina. The 24-year-old is displaying unprecedented dedication in training and matches, fully committed to his current club. However, the allure of the Premier League remains strong, and Kean’s future could be influenced by a €52 million release clause that becomes active in July.
As the season progresses, Kean’s priority is clear: continue his goal-scoring form and help Fiorentina’s campaign. The transfer discussions can wait, but with his current trajectory, it seems inevitable that Kean will have some big decisions to make come summer.
