Randal Kolo Muani has decided both his immediate future and his plans for the summer.
The Eintracht Frankfurt striker, who broke into France’s international team last year and subsequently participated in the World Cup, has been linked with a move to the Premier League.
Manchester United’s name has appeared in several reports surrounding 24-year-old Kolo Muani, with Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur also involved in the speculation.
He has enjoyed an incredibly fruitful season in the Bundesliga, scoring five goals and assisting nine others. With such good form in Germany, Bayern Munich’s interest in wresting another star player from a domestic rival has also been piqued.
Sky Sports Germany has reported that Kolo Muani has drawn up a personal development plan, which revolves around the Bundesliga.
As Markus Krösche, Frankfurt’s sporting director, announced yesterday, Kolo Muani will not leave during the winter transfer window.
According to Florian Plettenberg, Frankfurt would be willing to listen to astronomical offers in the summer, seeking between 90 and 100 million euros. He pointed out that United is a club that has great interest in the player.
However, United are unlikely to commit to negotiations for another striker at this valuation following the arrival of Antony for a similar discussed fee.
Sky reporter Alexander Bonengel has reported that Kolo Muani wishes to extend his stay in Frankfurt beyond the summer, as long as the club participates in European football.
Having become a fixture in Didier Deschamps’ team, it is essential for the 24-year-old to play on the biggest stage in international club football.
In fact, the player is alleged to have the Premier League in his sights, but considers progression through the Bundesliga critical to his development.
As a result, Sky is of the opinion that he would rather move to Bayern Munich or Borussia Dortmund than to an English club like United.
