Will Bayern Munich Fight Manchester United Over Muani Deal?
It has been reported that the Red Devils will need to pay a ‘crazy fee’ to sign the 24-year-old Qatar World Cup finalist in the summer. However, Frankfurt’s CEO recently admitted that they will ask for at least £78 million to consider selling Muani.

Amidst all this, Bayern Munich CEO Kahn was asked if his side’s links to a summer move for Muani are indeed correct. He told BILD: “Kolo Muani? Same. I don’t want to talk about players of other clubs. But we’re assessing the striker market.”
This is a rather interesting response, considering that it was recently reported that Bayern had made the prospect of signing the 24-year-old their priority for the summer. Irrespective of whatever the Bayern CEO is saying, the Red Devils can be assured to face a stern battle in their ambitions to sign the 24-year-old in the summer window.
Muani Flying High on Amazing Personal Campaign
Kolo Muani has been among the most prolific strikers in Europe’s elite leagues this season and excelled for club and country. As a matter of fact, he even featured for France in the Qatar World Cup – scoring in the semi-final against Morocco and producing some impressive cameos.
With that being said, the 24-year-old striker’s best work has been at the club level. He has 36 goal contributions (21 goals, 15 assists) in just 42 appearances in all competitions for Frankfurt – which is the reason behind him attracting attention from some of the world’s best clubs.

Muani can play all across the frontline for his side, which includes as a centre-forward or in either of the wings. He’s blessed with pace and impressive close control, while his final product has been on song this season. The French internatioal, who was praised for his ‘explosiveness’ by his youth coach, seems destined for a big-money move in the summer.
