Eintracht Frankfurt fear that Manchester United are making a move for Randal Kolo Muani this summer.
The Reds are understood to be working on a deal to sign Atalanta striker Rasmus Hojlund, while France international Kolo Muani appears to be an alternative option.
“Frankfurt are afraid of one club when it comes to the future of Randal Kolo Muani — Manchester United,” Christian Falk writes, as per CaughtOffside.
“They heard that PSG weren’t so keen on the player right now, so they hoped to keep him for one more year but the only unknown for them is United. They are still waiting for the offer United were preparing.
“If they come, I think Kolo Muani would agree because there are not so many clubs left and they were one of the first who showed interest. The offer is not on the table now but Frankfurt are still afraid and now we have to see what they will do.”
Kolo Muani enjoyed an impressive season with Frankfurt last term, scoring 23 goals and registering 17 assists across all competitions. We can see why Erik ten Hag wants to add a player like that to his squad, although it looks like Hojlund takes priority right now.
United need to find a player who can take some of the goalscoring responsibility from Marcus Rashford.
We already know that Ten Hag can’t rely on Anthony Martial to stay fit and it doesn’t look like he’s attracting much interest in the transfer market.
