Paris Saint-Germain wants to add another No. 9 before the summer transfer window closes. Even though the file has hit a significant hurdle, the capital club has eyes on Randal Kolo Muani.

Nonetheless, a recent report reveals that PSG won’t increase their offer for Kolo Muani at this stage, and Eintracht Frankfurt is unwilling to accept the €80 million bid. 

L’Equipe reports that the Ligue 1 giants have not given up recruiting Kolo Muani. The French media outlet notes that the key is Hugo Ekitike, selling the 21-year-old to a Premier League club and recouping a nice sum.

As a result, PSG hopes to have more cash to fund their pursuit of the Frenchman. Still, Kolo Muani is doing his best to push the file forward as he recently spoke with Sky Sports News and stated his desire to leave for Paris.

“It’s no secret that PSG made a record offer,” Kolo Muani said. “It is now a unique opportunity for me. I would like to move to Paris and people in charge are informed. I hope and wish that Frankfurt will agree to PSG’s offer and that this move will be made possible for me.”

Will the 24-year-old get his way and leave the Bundesliga side before the summer transfer window closes? These next few hours will be interesting to follow.
