Fiorentina and Moise Kean Agree New Contract with Improved Salary and Higher Release Clause

Fiorentina have reached an agreement with striker Moise Kean on a new contract that significantly increases his salary and raises his release clause above the previous €52 million. The deal is set to be signed today, confirming Kean’s commitment to the Florence club after a goal-filled season.

WHAT HAS BEEN AGREED?

Kean, 25, will see his annual salary jump from €2.2 million to €4 million, nearly doubling his pay. The new agreement includes a higher release clause, replacing the earlier €52 million amount that expired at the end of July. This change comes after several clubs, including Manchester United and two leading Saudi teams, showed interest in triggering the old clause, but Kean rejected a move abroad and preferred to remain in Serie A. Fiorentina, eager to secure their top scorer, ensured negotiations moved quickly and positively after the window for the previous clause closed.

KEAN’S IMPACT AT FIORENTINA

Kean delivered his best season in Italy since joining Fiorentina from Juventus, scoring 19 goals in 32 Serie A matches. His goals helped Fiorentina finish 6th in the league last season, qualifying for the Conference League. Kean’s presence up front has been crucial, especially as Fiorentina reshaped their attack after recent changes. His performances have won over fans and silenced early doubts about his consistency and work rate.

LOOKING AHEAD: WHAT COMES NEXT?

Fiorentina begin their 2025/26 Serie A campaign hoping to build on last year’s success. Their drew their opener to Cagliari and will be visiting Torino next, who finished in 10th last season, hoping to get their first win of the season before the international break. With Kean now securely tied down and motivated by a new deal, Fiorentina will look to close the gap between themselves and the top five. Kean will aim to improve on his impressive goal tally, and the club will hope his decision to stay will inspire their European push and discourage rivals from making new attempts to sign him.
