Real Madrid offered the chance to sign €80 million-rated Bundesliga rising star

Real Madrid started the new season with a comprehensive 2-0 victory over Athletic Club, with new signing Jude Bellingham notably scoring his first goal for the club.

However, as much as the team looks promising heading into the new season, there are still certain problem areas that need to be addressed.

One of them is the lack of a frontline striker. The departure of Karim Benzema has left the club devoid of a proper number nine, even though they signed Joselu.

According to Tomas Gonzalez-Martin, Real Madrid have been given the opportunity to sign Randal Kolo Muani.

The Eintracht Frankfurt star has been offered to the Spanish giants, as the player looks to take the next step in his career.

With 40 goal involvements during his first season at Frankfurt, Kolo Muani has emerged as one of the rising stars in the Bundesliga.

A striker by trade, who can also operate in wider positions, Kolo Muani has also impressed with his performances for the French national team. He has already won nine caps for his country.

Real Madrid are no strangers to Randal Kolo Muani and in fact, have been linked with a move for the Frenchman throughout the summer.

But what could the potential signing of Kolo Muani indicate, as far as the club’s transfer plans are concerned?

For starters, it would mean the club might not make a move for Kylian Mbappe this summer. The forward is reportedly in talks with PSG over a renewal. He has also been reinstated to the team after being left out in the first game.

Kolo Muani, whose market value stands at €80 million, could act as a bridge for Mbappe, with Real Madrid likely to make a move in the summer of 2024.

Until then, the Frenchman could become the ideal strike partner for Vinicius Junior this season.

However, with Frankfurt likely to hold out for a fortune, signing the former Nantes star will be far from a straightforward task for Los Blancos.
