Last summer, it was reported that the Italian club and the red-and-whites were showing active interest in the Albanian forward. As quoted by Sport24, Dzyuba said that he would like them to come and talk, but the price is definitely not €8 million. Transfermarkt values Daku at €10 million. In July 2025, Mirlind Daku extended his contract with the Kazan club until 2029.

Rashid Rakhimov, the coach of Rubin Kazan, confirmed the interest from Fiorentina in Mirlind Daku. He mentioned that Fiorentina is attentive to Daku, who has scored 4 goals in the first 4 rounds of the Russian top division. The interest is linked to the potential departure of Beltran from Fiorentina.
