Paris Saint-Germain announced today, Friday, that it has completed the signing of French striker Randall Kolo Mwani from Eintracht Frankfurt.
After weeks of negotiations, the clubs reached an agreement on a transfer deadline for a fee of €95m ($102.6m), including add-ons. Eintracht said.

Kolo Mwani joined Paris Saint-Germain after the departure of stars Lionel Messi and Neymar this summer to Inter Miami and Al Hilal, respectively.
The 24-year-old signed a five-year contract with Paris Saint-Germain.
“We are delighted to welcome Randal Kolo Moani – a proud Parisian and Frenchman – to Paris Saint-Germain, his city and his home,” said PSG President Nasser Al-Khelaifi. He said.
“We’ve worked incredibly hard to make this transfer happen. Randall is a fantastic French international and committed to PSG and our project. I’m really excited to see Randall in the PSG shirt, giving everything for the club.
Randall Kolo-Mwani said, “It’s great to be back where it all began! I was drawn to the club’s project. Now I can’t wait to finally be able to work and play in these colours.”
The move comes after Eintracht said Kolo Mwani had refused to train with the club earlier this week as he was eyeing a move to the French champions.
After joining Eintracht from Nantes, Kolo Mwani shone last season scoring 23 goals in 46 games overall and started the current campaign with three goals in four games.
Kolo Mwani – who has scored one goal in nine appearances for France – will be reunited at Paris Saint-Germain with fellow France internationals Kylian Mbappe and Ousmane Dembele.
All three were in the France squad that reached the 2022 World Cup final in Qatar, where they lost to Argentina on penalties. Kolo Mwani scored in France’s semi-final victory over Morocco.
