Eintracht Frankfurt says it has not yet received an offer for striker Randal Kolo Muani (24), who is also being courted by FC Bayern. “Of course, Randal drew attention to himself with his performances and made another development just after the World Cup. It’s normal for a club like Bayern Munich to be interested in him,” Eintracht sports director Markus Krösche told Sky TV.
“On the other hand, Randal still feels very comfortable with us and he still has a lot of development areas that he can work on with us very well. But Bayern Munich isn’t the only club dealing with him either. So far, however, there have not been any specific inquiries, neither from Bayern nor from others,” said Krösche.
Kolo Muani switched from FC Nantes to the Europa League winners on a free transfer last summer and has since increased his market value from 16 million to 65 million euros, making him one of the top 10 most valuable Bundesliga professionals. No other player from the German upper house has had such a higher rating this season than Kolo Muani. At Eintracht, the attacker, who has appeared six times for France, has a contract until the summer of 2027 without an exit clause.

Eintracht Frankfurt does not want to sell Kolo Muani – FC Bayern is looking for a striker
Krösche had emphasized several times in the past few weeks and months that he did not want to give up Kolo Muani this summer. The 42-year-old would have turned down 100 million euros for the vice world champion in winter, as he answered a question in the “Sky” interview in January. The right-footer himself had reacted cautiously to speculation about the German record champions. “Bayern Munich is a big team, every player dreams of playing for big clubs,” he said on “Sky”. “But I just focus on the here and now and I hope that we achieve our goals.”
The Munich are looking for a new top solution for the attack. In addition to Kolo Muani, Harry Kane (29, Tottenham Hotspur) and Victor Osimhen (24, SSC Napoli) were traded as candidates. Problematic: All three strikers could cost a transfer fee in the three-digit million range. Only 13 times in history have footballers been paid more than this mark.
