Manchester United and other European giants are on alert as chaos is engulfing Eintracht Frankfurt, which could force Randal Kolo Muani out of the club.

The Frenchman is one of Europe's hottest commodities this summer after an unexpectedly impressive debut season in the Bundesliga following his free transfer from Nantes to Frankfurt last summer.

Kolo Muani's form earned him a place on France's plane to the Qatar World Cup and some of Europe's biggest sides are monitoring the man who has hit 21 goals and provided 15 assists across all competitions this term.

Manchester United, Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich are all said to be interested in the striker, and the latest news coming out of Frankfurt may make a move more plausible this summer, despite recent assertions by board member Axel Hellmann that the club want more than €100 million for a player they would prefer to keep.

Chaos at Eintracht

The early-season optimism surrounding Frankfurt has dissipated lately. Since the turn of the year, things have not gone to plan. Their fairytale run in the Champions League ended swiftly and results in the league have nosedived so much that there is a risk of Frankfurt dropping out of European contention altogether.

They did recently reach the final of the DFB-Pokal - which could be their last chance to get into Europe - but BILD now report that this won't save Oliver Glasner's job; the club will part ways with him.

Glasner won't be the only one to leave this summer either, with star players Daichi Kamada and Evan N'Dicka departing on free transfers, while Danish dynamo Jesper Lindstrom has joined Kolo Muani on the shortlists of Europe's elite.

This means that Frankfurt will be in for a massive summer rebuild with no guarantee of future success - an unattractive proposition for any player, but especially for someone like Randal Kolo Muani, who has the world at his feet and who has already admitted that he wants to play for a bigger club and challenge for trophies soon.
