According to a media report, FC Bayern Munich has held initial talks with the striker’s management when courting Eintracht Frankfurt’s Randal Kolo Muani. These went well, even if there are no concrete negotiations, the TV broadcaster Sky reported.
According to this, other top European clubs should also be interested in the 24-year-old Frenchman, who is the second-best scorer in the Bundesliga this season with 13 goals behind Bremen’s Niclas Füllkrug.
Manchester and Paris are also said to be interested
Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain are also said to be interested in the vice world champion, who still has a contract in Frankfurt until 2027. Kolo Muani switched from FC Nantes to the Europa League winners last summer and has since increased his market value enormously.
The fact that top clubs are dealing with Kolo Muani is “normal”, said Eintracht sports director Markus Krösche recently on the Sky broadcaster. “Of course, Randal drew attention to himself with his performances. So far, however, there have not been any specific inquiries, neither from Bayern nor from others.”
Bayern is looking for a new top striker
In the past few weeks there has been repeated speculation about possible new additions to the FC Bayern offensive. A new top striker seems necessary, mainly because the departure of Robert Lewandowski to FC Barcelona could not really be compensated for so far.
In addition to Kolo Muani, Harry Kane from Tottenham Hotspur and Victor Osimhen from SSC Napoli were mentioned again and again.
Bayern beat Hertha BSC 2-0 in a lackluster game on Sunday. This means that Borussia Dortmund has once again been pushed off the top of the Bundesliga table. (dpa)
