Manchester United may activate Keane termination clause? Time is tight, and only the last chance is left

According to the latest report by Milan Sports, Manchester United is considering activate the termination clause in the contract between Italian striker Moise Keane and Florence in advance. If the Red Devils want to sign the forward star at a relatively reasonable price, they must take action within the next 24 hours.

Manchester United competes for the time window and wants to leverage Fiorentine scorer

Keane, 25, ushers in a highlight of his career in the 2024-25 season. His choice to leave Juventus to join Florence proved to be a visionary decision. Last season, he scored 25 goals in various competitions, of which only one of them came from a penalty kick, showing comprehensive offensive ability and efficient finishing ability.

With its outstanding performance, Keane has also attracted the attention of many giants, including Manchester United. Previously, the Red Devils' targets such as Victor Gossens and Liam Drapp have refused to transfer, forcing Manchester United to turn their attention to Keane.

The termination fee is 52 million euros. Manchester United needs to clean up the players and raise funds first. It is reported that Keane's contract with Fiorentina contains a special clause - the current activateable buyout amount is 52 million euros. But this window is about to close, with a deadline of July 15. If Manchester United fails to take action in time, if they still want to introduce Keane in the future, they may face the risk of Fiorentina's sharp increase in asking price.

People familiar with the matter revealed that Manchester United may need to sell some of the substitutes first to raise enough funds to complete the deal. Nevertheless, club executives are speeding up their operations and trying to reach an agreement by the deadline.

However, there are also reports that it is still unclear whether Keane is Manchester United's real number one signing target this summer. On the one hand, the team coach has a real need to strengthen the front line; on the other hand, the transfer market is changing, and Manchester United may also find another alternative.

In any case, less than one day left before the critical deadline, the answer will be revealed soon.
