Kean-Commisso talk: what’s seeping in for the future at Fiorentina

In Florence, there is enthusiasm, but also a hint of tension. The future of Moise Kean, striker protagonist of a dream season with the Fiorentina jersey, is still to be written. The news of talks between president Rocco Commisso and the former Juventus center forward has rekindled the hopes of purple fans, who dream of seeing him stay under the Fiesole for a long time to come.

The face-to-face meeting between Commisso and Kean took place during the recent league trip to Cagliari. It was an informal but significant meeting in which the American patron reiterated all his desire to retain the striker, a genuine dragger on the field and symbol of a growing project. The message is clear: Fiorentina wants to bet on Kean also for next season, perhaps with a central role in the path towards Europe and, why not, towards a Conference League to raise to the sky.

The numbers, for that matter, speak for him: 23 goals in the season between Serie A, Coppa Italia and the Conference League, plus 3 with the national team, including a brace against Germany in the Nations League. A 52-million-euro rescission clause represents an important, but not insurmountable barrier for Europe’s top clubs, which are increasingly attentive to his exploits.

It remains to be understood how much feelings will count: Kean has found trust, centrality and affection in Florence, especially thanks to a special relationship with coach Palladino. The coach’s permanence could be decisive in the choice of the striker, who confided that he is conflicted.

Florentin can only keep dreaming and fighting: for the cups, for the Conference, for Kean. Every win, every goal, every cheer could make the difference in the final decision.
