Como require three sales before making serious attempt for Italy international Kean | OneFootball

Monday’s reports claim that Moise Kean is still Como’s first-choice attacking target this summer, but Cesc Fabregas’s side must first move at least three of their current first-team players on first before making a serious attempt to sign the Italy international.

Who must Como sell before making Kean attempt?

Como are seeking a new centre-forward to compete with Tasos Douvikas ahead of their first ever Champions League campaign in 2026-27 and Fiorentina striker Kean has been labelled the club’s top target by transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio.

The 26-year-old has scored 27 league goals since joining Fiorentina from Juventus two years ago and is currently averaging a goal every other game for the Italy national team with a record of 13 from 26 caps.

The fact that he is a homegrown or ‘locally-trained’ centre-forward is also useful for Como, who still need more Italian talents to comply with UEFA squad rules.

However, before Como are able to make a serious attempt to bring Kean to the Stadio Sinigaglia, they must first shift a number of their current first-team players.

The trickiest of those players appears to be Alvaro Morata, who had been in talks over a potential move to the USA to join Atlanta United, who had also shown an interest in Romelu Lukaku, but the MLS outfit are now leaning towards Switzerland international Breel Embolo instead.

Gianluca Di Marzio reports that Ignace van der Brempt could also be sold this summer: Genoa are in negotiations with Como, while Marseille and Werder Bremern in Ligue 1 and the Bundesliga have also expressed an interest.

There has also been interest from Virtus Entella in midfielder Matthias Braunoeder, who spent the 2025-26 season on loan in Serie B with Bari.
