Tottenham, who welcomed Randal Kolo Muani on loan from PSG this season, have made a decision on the French striker's future.

Expected to join Juventus during the last summer transfer window, Randal Kolo Muani, who had revived his career in Italy last season, ultimately did not join the Bianconeri. The Italian club had failed to reach an agreement with PSG over a permanent transfer or a loan with an obligation to buy.

Tottenham will not keep Randal Kolo Muani

As the saga dragged on throughout the summer, Paris had to find a destination for their French international at the last minute, as he no longer featured in Luis Enrique's plans. Tottenham then emerged and secured a straight loan, without an option to buy for the former Nantes man.

A temporary solution that has ultimately not proved beneficial. Indeed, the 27-year-old has not established himself as a starter at Spurs and has posted poor statistics: 3 goals and 3 assists in 26 matches. Thus, unsurprisingly, Tottenham have no intention of keeping RKM beyond this season, according to TeamTalk.

PSG will need to find a new exit door for RKM in the next window

A permanent transfer or a new loan is not being considered by the English club. This stance from the London club has been known to the PSG-owned player's camp for several weeks, as it played a major role in his desire to leave Spurs during the January transfer window.

Juventus had notably attempted to bring Randal Kolo Muani back, but the deal was too complicated to seal at the end of January. With this season, the Frenchman's chances of participating in the 2026 World Cup are diminishing, while Paris are expected to take him back next summer with a lower value – £21.2m (€25m) according to Transfermarkt.

It seems difficult to imagine PSG and Luis Enrique giving Randal Kolo Muani another chance, with the striker likely to quickly find himself on the market during the next summer transfer window.
