As Manchester United’s search for a striker continues, it is believed that the club is now targetting Eintracht Frankfurt’s Randal Kolo Muani and will submit an official bid for him in order to bring him to the Old Trafford this summer. Head coach Erik Ten Hag apparently likes the player and the 24-year-old recently changed his agent in the hopes of securing a move to one of the biggest clubs in Europe soon.

Eintracht Frankfurt have pulled off a brilliant deal with the signing of Kolo Muani last summer. The French attacker was signed on a free transfer after an impressive season with Nantes and not only has he impressed with the German outfit in the Bundesliga, but Kolo Muani also proved to be a revelation for France as they finished runners-up in the FIFA World Cup in Qatar last year.

Such has been the form and attention that he has been generating that Frankfurt could end up making a massive profit with his sale this summer. While the club maintains that they have no interest in selling him, it is believed that a big offer could definitely lure them in. 

Frankfurt was also on high alert about his situation during the winter transfer market. The striker had a great tournament in Qatar and was even impressive in the final. Although he ended up staying in Germany beyond the transfer window, that could change in the summer as clubs in England are now paying attention closely.

Manchester United are at the top of that list and they are expected to face competition from rivals Liverpool for his signature. German outlet SportBILD has also reported that although he initially wanted to remain in the Bundesliga, he has now changed agents and is looking to force a move in the summer.

“There has been a sudden change in strategy, with Muani electing to change representative and join Ousmane Dembele’s Moussa Sissoko instead.”

“He [Moussa Sissoko] has ‘the best connections’ to the biggest clubs in Europe and that has set up the possibility of a transfer this year instead.”

“Indeed a deal is ‘already possible’ and the newspaper claims that ‘it is expected’ that interested parties such as Manchester United ‘will make an offer’ at some point.”
