January is approaching, and in the Fiorentina household, the atmosphere is one of major decisions. The standings are clear: the Viola are last, and the season has taken a dangerous turn.

Fiorentina, January Revolution: From Dzeko and Dodô to Kean, the Market Could Change the Face of the Viola

For this reason, the management is considering a deep intervention in the winter market, which could result not only in new additions but also in significant departures. With experience, uncertain contracts, and top players sought after abroad, the risk of a true revolution is real.

Dzeko on the way out: Experience needed for salvation

The first name on the list of possible departures is Edin Dzeko. Arrived in the summer from Fenerbahce with high expectations, the Bosnian striker is encountering significant difficulties in Florence, both in terms of scoring and integrating into an unstable technical context.

However, there is no shortage of requests. In Serie A, Genoa appears to be the most interested team: Daniele De Rossi, who shared the locker room with Dzeko during their time at Roma, knows his profile well and believes his leadership could be decisive in the Grifone's fight for survival. Cagliari also remains in the background, but the operation presents more complexity from an economic and logistical standpoint.

Dodô and the renewal issue: Inter on the lookout

Attention is also on the situation of Dodô. The Brazilian full-back has a contract expiring in 2027, but negotiations for renewal are stalled, and the gap between the parties remains significant. A detail that has not gone unnoticed by the big clubs.

Inter, in particular, is closely monitoring the situation, considering Dodô as a possible alternative to Dumfries for the next season. If Fiorentina does not secure guarantees on the extension, an exit as early as January could become a concrete option.

Kean, the excellent sacrifice: Barcelona emerges

The heaviest rumors, however, concern Moise Kean. As reported by Orazio Accomando on SportMediaset's TG, the Viola striker has caught the attention of Barcelona. An interest that could turn into something more concrete in the coming weeks.

Kean's future is closely tied to that of Fiorentina. In the event of relegation, the club risks losing him for a figure significantly lower than his real value. For this reason, the management is considering the possibility of selling him as early as January, anticipating more penalizing scenarios.

Kean has a release clause of 62 million euros valid for abroad from July 1 to 15, but the Blaugrana might try to circumvent the obstacle with an alternative formula. Given Barça's well-known financial difficulties, the most feasible option would be a "loan with an obligation to buy," a solution that would allow the Catalans to spread the investment.

Premier League distant, January decisive

At the moment, a path that would bring Kean back to the Premier League seems complicated, while the Barcelona option appears to be the most concrete among those that have emerged. Much will depend on the performance in the coming weeks and Fiorentina's ability to climb the standings before the winter break.

One thing is certain: the January market will represent a turning point for the present and future of the Viola club. Among survival, finances, and technical ambitions, every choice will carry enormous weight. And no name, not even that of Moise Kean, seems truly untouchable.
