Eintracht Frankfurt forward Randal Kolo Muani has reportedly come to an agreement with Paris Saint-Germain over personal terms ahead of a potential move to the French capital.
The France international’s future has been the subject of much speculation this summer, with a number of clubs, including Chelsea, Manchester United and Real Madrid, all said to be admirers.
Chelsea and Real Madrid are not believed to be pursuing a deal at this stage, though, while Man United announced the arrival of Rasmus Hojlund from Atalanta BC on Saturday afternoon.
There is allegedly still a chance that the Red Devils could move for another forward this summer, but it is difficult to imagine there being the funds available for Kolo Muani.
According to German journalist Florian Plettenberg, Kolo Muani has come to an agreement with PSG over personal terms, with the forward making it clear that he wants to head to Paris.
Plettenberg claims that Frankfurt want €100m (£86.5m) for the 24-year-old, but PSG are not prepared to meet that figure, which means that the deal is not close despite the advancement.
Kolo Muani started his professional career with Nantes in 2018, and he represented the French outfit on 87 occasions, scoring 23 times in the process, before making the move to Frankfurt.
The forward was in strong form for his German club during the 2022-23 campaign, scoring 23 goals and registering 17 assists in 46 appearances in all competitions.
Kolo Muani netted 15 goals and registered 14 assists in 32 Bundesliga matches, while he also scored twice in the Champions League, with Frankfurt reaching the round of 16.
PSG are in the market for a new centre-forward this summer, while there is also huge uncertainty surrounding the future of star player Kylian Mbappe.https://c4d8e6cabd3538b11532af4bff9a40e1.safeframe.googlesyndication.com/safeframe/1-0-40/html/container.html?n=0
Real Madrid had allegedly already come to an agreement to sign Mbappe on a free transfer next summer, but PSG want to sell him in a big-money deal during the current window.
Benfica’s Goncalo Ramos, who has also been linked with a number of major European clubs this summer, is also being strongly linked with a move to the French champions.
PSG could reportedly sign the Portugal international in the near future, with Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano claiming on Thursday that a big-money deal was close to being completed.
Lionel Messi has departed the French capital this summer, while Mbappe could follow suit in the coming weeks, but Neymar is set to stay despite widespread speculation surrounding his future earlier this year.
