Tottenham Hotspur have entered the race to sign an "incredible" star, with new manager Roberto De Zerbi personally keen.
Spurs already eyeing new signings for De Zerbi
It was a risk for De Zerbi to join Tottenham at this stage of the season, with his new club hovering just above the Premier League relegation zone, but having signed a five-year deal, the Italian has already stated he is in it for the long haul.
The Spurs boss set the record straight on whether he would leave if his side are unable to avoid the drop, saying: "I signed five years of contract because, for me, it's a big challenge and I will be the coach of Tottenham next season, no matter what."
In light of the international break, the 46-year-old has had some time to get used to his new surroundings, before travelling to Sunderland on Sunday, in what will be the first of seven crucial games.
De Zerbi's number one priority will be to steer the Lilywhites clear of the bottom three, but targets have already been identified for the summer, including AFC Bournemouth defender Marcos Senesi and Werder Bremen centre-back Karim Coulibaly.
Not only are the north Londoners eager to improve their backline, but they are also keen to bring in a new centre-forward this summer, and they have joined the race to sign a Serie A star.
"Incredible" striker emerges as target for Tottenham
According to a report from Italy (via Sport Witness), Tottenham are now plotting a move for Fiorentina striker Moise Kean, with De Zerbi personally an admirer of the Italian, who is 'destined to leave' the Serie A side this summer.
The Italian club are set to hold out for €50m (£44m), which Spurs could 'come very close' to paying, but a deal will only be possible if they manage to remain in the Premier League.
Kean, who is represented by the same agent as Dejan Kulusevski, impressed during the recent international break, despite Italy being unable to book their place at the World Cup, receiving plaudits from The Athletic's James Horncastle after scoring against Bosnia & Herzegovina.
Horncastle said: "Kean's incredible run continues. He has now scored in six straight games for Italy — it's one that immediately calms some nerves for the travelling Italians."
The 26-year-old has found the net 13 times in 26 appearances for his country, and he has regularly been on the scoresheet since signing for Fiorentina too, bagging 34 goals in 77 outings, while also providing seven assists.
Kean didn't exactly impress during his previous stint in England, only managing to muster up four goals in 39 games for Everton, but the Italy star has shown he could be ready for a second chance in the Premier League.
