Manchester United target Randal Kolo Muani could be on his way out of Eintracht Frankfurt for a knockdown price this summer.

Kolo Muani is in high demand, with Bayern Munich and PSG also linked with a move for the French international striker – who has 21 goals to his name this season.

And a situation where so many elite clubs are vying for the 24-year-old’s services is bound to only drive Eintracht’s asking price up.

According to BILD, Bayern would consider making a €60m offer for Kolo Muani – despite Eintracht valuing him at double that amount.

However, the report adds that the two clubs could ultimately agree a fee somewhere between those two figures.

Kolo Muani – who joined Eintracht on a free transfer last summer after leaving Ligue 1 outfit Nantes – currently has an Estimated Transfer Value (ETV) of €63.3m.

A landmark season

In his first campaign in the Bundesliga, Kolo Muani has averaged almost a goal every other game – finding the net 13 times in 28 appearances to sit as the second-highest scorer in the German top flight this term.

It’s been a landmark season for the 6ft 2in frontman, who made his senior France debut in September and so nearly won the World Cup for his country – only to be denied by Argentina goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez’s sensational save at the very end of extra time in the final.

Man Utd – who remain well-placed to qualify for the 2023/24 Champions League – also continue to be linked with the likes of Harry Kane – who has been touted as a potential option for Bayern, too – and Victor Osimhen.
