RB Leipzig is keen on signing Kolo Muani, PSG’s €95 million striker who has struggled since his move from Eintracht Frankfurt. Could the Bundesliga reignite his career?
RB Leipzig is eyeing a significant addition to their attack, with Kolo Muani emerging as a serious target, according to SportBild. The French striker joined Paris Saint-Germain in 2023 for a staggering €95 million, following an impressive stint at Eintracht Frankfurt, but his time in Paris has been far from successful.
Muani’s move to PSG made him one of the most expensive players in football history, but he has struggled to secure a spot in the starting XI. Often reduced to a substitute role, the 24-year-old’s market value has plummeted to just €40 million. PSG is now actively seeking a buyer to offset what appears to be a significant financial loss.
Leipzig, known for nurturing young talents, is reportedly impressed by Muani’s pace and potential, qualities that were on full display during his time in the Bundesliga. Despite interest from Premier League clubs, Leipzig’s familiarity with Muani’s abilities from his time in Germany could give them an edge.
This season, Muani has made 13 appearances across all competitions, scoring only two goals, a far cry from his prolific performances in Frankfurt. For Leipzig, a move for Muani could rejuvenate their attack and provide the French striker a fresh start in a system that might better suit his style.
