According to Saber Desfarges, Eintracht Frankfurt will not budge on their asking price of €90m for Randal Kolo Muani. PSG are heavily interested in the French international forward and have been trying tirelessly to get a deal done before the September 1st deadline. The Télefoot journalist reports that Les Parisiens believed they would be able to complete a deal worth €70m including bonuses.
This latest development comes after L’Equipe reported that the Ligue 1 champions were looking to complete a deal worth €65m plus Hugo Ekitiké, with the former Reims forward heading in the other direction. However, the Bundesliga club have had two contract offers rejected by the 21-year-old amidst Premier League interest from Crystal Palace. At present the deal for Kolo-Muani remains on stand-by but there is still time to complete a deal before the end of the transfer window. The 24-year-old has also now come out with a statement, wanting to join PSG.
In order to complete a deal for the former Nantes forward though, PSG will have to meet the demands of Eintracht Frankfurt as they remain inflexible in their asking price for their starman. As a result, PSG could turn their attention to Bradley Barcola as an alternative to the Frankfurt forward before the end of the window. The Lyon academy graduate has stated his intent to leave the Groupama Stadium in favour of joining PSG.
