Eintracht Frankfurt CEO Axel Hellmann has played down suggestions that Randal Kolo Muani could leave the German club during this summer's transfer window.
The 24-year-old has been in impressive form for Frankfurt during the 2022-23 campaign, featuring on 42 occasions in all competitions, scoring 21 goals and registering 15 assists in the process.
Muani has scored 13 goals and registered 12 assists in 29 Bundesliga appearances, while he also netted twice in seven Champions League outings before his side's elimination.
The France international's future is currently the subject of much speculation, with Manchester United believed to be interested in signing him during the summer market.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain have also been credited with an interest in his services.
There have also been claims that Bayern Munich are keen to sign Muani as a replacement for Robert Lewandowski, who made the move to Barcelona during last summer's transfer window.
There have been suggestions that the Frenchman could be allowed to leave his current side in the upcoming market for a fee in the region of €90m (£79.8m).
However, Hellmann has claimed that it would take much more than that price to interest the Bundesliga team.
"Kolo Muani? When I look at the international market, I imagine a different number than €90m (£79.8m)... more than this! He has a long-term deal. My absolutely ideal scenario would be that he stays with Eintracht," Hellmann told Bild when questioned on the forward.
Muani is also now an important player for the French national side, featuring on seven occasions, scoring once and providing one assist in the process.
The forward is expected to play a key role for the 2022 World Cup finalists at next summer's European Championship, and he started both of their qualification fixtures in March.
Man United will be in the market for a big-money centre-forward this summer, with Tottenham Hotspur's Harry Kane and Napoli's Victor Osimhen also linked with switches to Old Trafford.
Real Madrid, meanwhile, are seeking a long-term replacement for Karim Benzema, who is set to sign an extension at Bernabeu until June 2024 before leaving on a free transfer.
Muani started his professional career with Nantes, representing the French side on 87 occasions, scoring 23 goals and registering 16 assists, before making the move to German football.

Please bro🙏 I agree on muani being lazy, but we don't need cheap, we need good strikers who can even score 2 goals in a match
And how can a Lazy Striker do that? You agree that he’s lazy and you want him to com anyway? That boy is lazy, Bundesliga is a soft league that’s why he’s shining there, bro that boy will flop in EPL! Ivan Toney will score two goals and even hattricks in matches for us, he already has the experience with English football!

Man United should go for Ivan Toney, he’s way cheaper and more experienced than Osimhen or any other young striker available

Do not try to increase his value by bluffing. He will play at Bayern next season.
