Manchester United and Bayern Munich will go head-to-head in a battle to sign France international striker Randal Kolo Muani.
United are hopeful of signing two forwards this summer – one with the profile to immediately fit into their strongest starting line-up, which Eintracht Frankfurt’s Kolo Muani would fit, and a younger option who can be rotated into the side throughout the campaign.
Tottenham striker Harry Kane had led Erik ten Hag’s target list this summer as he is on red alert to sign a central striker at Old Trafford. However, United chiefs have swiftly grown pessimistic on any deal as they believe that Spurs chairman Daniel Levy will simply not countenance the striker’s exit and much less to a direct rival in the Premier League.
