Kolo Muani brings Mbappe closer to Real Madrid

According to 'RMC Sport', Randal Kolo Muani has asked for the first time to leave Eintracht Frankfurt. His request has been 'well received' by his management, who are not closing the door.
Coming off the back of a full season, boasting 24 goals and 14 assists, and a World Cup with the French team where he stood out for his impact on the final against Argentina, Kolo Muani is understandably being targeted by several clubs.
At the start of the summer transfer window, Kolo Muani was rumoured to be heading for the Premier League, with several clubs, including Manchester United, expressing an interest. The former Nantes man was also rumoured to be joining Bayern, who are still looking for a striker following the departure of Lewandowski, and PSG.
With Bayern currently keen on Harry Kane, the club most likely to secure Kolo Muani's services is none other than Paris Sain-Germain. PSG are also on the lookout for one or even two strikers this summer. With Harry Kane's interest fading, the Parc des Princes outfit are looking elsewhere. Goncalo Ramos is likely to sign for Luis Enrique's side, and Kolo Muani could follow in his footsetps.
Moreover, the young Frankfurt striker has clearly expressed his desire to join the Parc des Princes outfit and the club has already started talks with the German club over his arrival, according to 'L'Equipe'.

As has been reported for several weeks now, Mbappe is completely out of the Parisian club's plans after denying a possible renewal beyond 2024, and after rumours of numerous clubs trying to sign him, it is certain that the most likely destination is Real Madrid.
However, although Los Merengues would like to sign the French superstar this summer after Benzema's departure, there is also the possibility of waiting a year and signing him for free. The stumbling block to Los Blancos not going for Mbappe, despite the Parc des Princes outfit not counting on him for next season, is that they are asking around 200 million for him.
Nevertheless, this situation is changing, since in the last few days as mentioned above, the club presided by Al-Khelaifi are very close to closing Goncalo Ramos' transfer and are now going for Randal Kolo Muani. In the event that the French club sign both strikers, the gap left by Mbappe would be well covered, so perhaps they will lower their asking price for their superstar's departure or speed up their negotiations with Real Madrid.
