PSG close out transfer window by signing Kolo Muani for reported €90M
Paris Saint-Germain announced the signing of France striker Randal Kolo Muani from German club Eintracht Frankfurt, moments after the summer transfer window closed in Europe.
Kolo Muani has signed a five-year contract with the Ligue 1 champions, after media reports in France said they had agreed to pay a fee totalling 90 million euros ($97m) to Frankfurt.
The 24-year-old forward, who hails from the Paris suburbs and began his career at Nantes, had been a target for PSG all summer and completes an ambitious recruitment drive in the transfer window by the Qatar-backed club.
PSG had already notably signed French internationals in winger Ousmane Dembele from Barcelona and defender Lucas Hernandez from Bayern Munich.
As well as keeping Kylian Mbappe following a lengthy contract dispute, PSG also reinforced their attack with the arrivals of Spain's Marco Asensio from Real Madrid and South Korean star Lee Kang-in.
Kolo Muani's arrival follows that on Thursday of winger Bradley Barcola from Lyon for an initial 45 million euros.
