Transfer Talk: Liverpool and United planning moves for Kolo Muani

Liverpool and Manchester United are putting plans in place to bring Eintracht Frankfurt forward Randal Kolo Muani to England in the summer.

The Metro suggest the Premier League giants will have to dig deep into their pockets if they are to secure the services of the Frenchman due to his impressive performances at the World Cup.

The 24-year-old made three appearances in Qatar and scored in the semi-final victory over Morocco.

Kolo Muani has been thriving in the Bundesliga too, providing a league-high 10 assists and notching nine goals in 18 games this term.

His rise has been noted by both Jurgen Klopp's Reds and United, who are looking to bolster their squads with more attacking firepower in the coming months.

The report goes on to suggest that last season's Europa League winners would demand up to £90million for the Nantes academy graduate, with his current contract running until 2027.

Kolo Muani's fine form continued last night as he bagged a brace to book Die Adler's spot in the DFB-Pokal quarter-finals.
