Moise Kean Completes €40m Move to Como in Dramatic Deadline-Day Deal

Moise Kean has completed a dramatic move from Fiorentina to Como on the final day of the 2026 summer transfer window. The Italy international joins the ambitious Serie A club initially on loan, with an obligation to make the transfer permanent. The overall package is reportedly worth €40 million, including the loan fee, permanent transfer and potential bonuses.

Kean leaves Fiorentina after two seasons in which he established himself as one of the club's most productive attacking players. He scored 27 goals in 59 Serie A appearances, including a standout 2024/25 campaign when he found the net 19 times in the league. He also added five goals in 11 Conference League matches and another in the Coppa Italia.

The 26-year-old arrives at Como as the club's ninth signing of the season, adding further firepower to a squad that already includes new arrivals such as Trevoh Chalobah and Mattia Liberali. Como are preparing for their first Champions League campaign, with major European fixtures against clubs such as Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United highlighting the scale of the challenge ahead.

Kean's determination to complete the move was evident during the final stages of negotiations, when he reportedly refused to train with Fiorentina while pushing for a transfer. His arrival is expected to give Cesc Fabregas another dangerous attacking option, particularly because of Kean's combination of physical strength, pace and ability to threaten the opposition penalty area.

For Kean, the move represents an exciting opportunity to become a central figure in an ambitious project. He also brings valuable international experience, having scored 13 goals in 26 appearances for Italy. With Como preparing for a demanding season on both the domestic and European stage, Kean will be expected to make an immediate impact and help the club compete at a higher level.
