According to Hernandez, Randal Kolo Muani, Kylian Mbappé and Adrien Rabiot
Man Utd are 'very interested' in signing a French striker who will need a new club record, and a French journalist has revealed how PSG are facilitating the move. Red Devils transfer.
It's no secret that Man Utd's main goal this summer is to sign a top-class centre-back. Wout Weghorst struggled to score consistently, while Anthony Martial is said to have been put up for sale.
Victor Osimhen and Harry Kane are said to be United's main concerns. However, Napoli's Osimhen is also attracting interest from continental European giants. Indeed, RMC Sport reports that PSG have installed the Nigerian assassin as a 'priority' target. Club president Luis Campos is believed to be the main driver of interest.
However, as all clubs must do, PSG are leaving their options open and are said to have made 'first contacts' with Frankfurt superstar Randal Kolo Muani's camp.
The 24-year-old French striker is also an alternative at Man Utd if Kane and Osimhen get rid of Erik ten Hag. Others in the same category include Goncalo Ramos, Mohammed Kudus and Rasmus Hojlund. Kolo Muani is in irresistible form this season, scoring 20 goals and 14 assists in 40 appearances at club level. He also became a key player in Didier Deschamps' France team and scored in the semi-final against Morocco 2-0 at the World Cup.
RMC Sport say PSG have opened dialogue with Kolo Muani's team, although the player is in no hurry to sign thanks to other concerns including Bayern Munich and Man Utd.
The author of the article, Fabrice Hawkins, later took to Twitter to follow the story.
Hawkins tweeted that Bayern and Man Utd are "very interested" in Kolo Muani, who will cost 100 million euros (about 100 million euros). £88 million) to sign.
A number of that size would help Frankfurt set a new club record by a sizable margin. Their current auction record is the 60 million euros they received when they sold Luka Jovic to Real Madrid in 2019.
Obviously, both PSG and Man Utd prioritize Osimhen over Kolo Muani. However, if Napoli's ace chooses to join the Parisians, the door for Man Utd to sign Kolo Muani will be wide open. Hawkins said Man Utd are 'very interested' in the Frenchman, having reason they are not too worried about missing out on Osimhen and settling for Kolo Muani.
