Man United’s £105m target Randal Kolo Muani drops HUGE hint that he is ‘open to a move this summer’
‘I always dreamed of playing for big clubs’: Man United’s £105m target Randal Kolo Muani drops a HUGE hint that he is ‘open to moving this summer’ but insists he will continue to ‘focus’ on the current club Frankfurt
Manchester United target Randal Kolo Muani has given indications that he would be willing to move away from Eintracht Frankfurt this summer.
The Eintracht Frankfurt striker has emerged as one of the most exciting young strikers in Europe, with several strong World Cup displays for France bolstering the credentials he had begun to display at his club.
His 16 goals and 14 assists in all competitions this season are believed to have caught the eye of Erik ten Hag, and reports suggest United were prepared to break the bank with a £105m deal for the Frenchman.
But Ten Hag’s side are not the only ones in contention, as PSG are also rumored to be in the running for the former French Cup-winning Nantes striker.
And while the 24-year-old insisted he would remain ‘focused’ on his current club for the remainder of this campaign, he revealed his dreams lay with a more established name.

“We already talked a lot about it, but I try to concentrate on my club,” Kolo Muani told the French publication. L’Equipe when asked about his future.
‘We continue with our performances and we will see each other this summer. Afterwards, I always dreamed of playing for big clubs.’
United’s progress this season has been well documented, with Ten Hag leading the team to its first silverware in six years and the Red Devils currently sitting third in the Premier League.
However, their lack of a striker has been apparent in 2022-23, with Marcus Rashford flourishing on the left but Anthony Martial struggling to get fit and fit.
As a result, the club signed Wout Weghorst on loan from Burnley, but the Dutchman has been poor in front of goal, scoring just twice on 17 goals.

And the French striker, who thrives in Germany, believes his appearance this season surprised even him, before adding that he would be ‘ready for any challenge’.
“I thought I was going to need some time to adjust, maybe a year. But everything exploded. Either way, I’m up for any challenge.
“I ask the club to provide me with the statistics of my matches every time. I share this with my physical trainer to know what to improve.
I do a lot of goals and assists, but it’s not at the level it should be. I still miss a lot. This is only my third (full) season as a professional.’
