Tottenham are among the clubs closely monitoring Randal Kolo Muani’s situation, as the Paris Saint-Germain striker edges closer to a late departure ahead of the transfer deadline. Under contract until June 2028, the French international is no longer in Luis Enrique’s plans, and after talks with Juventus collapsed, several Premier League sides are ready to act.

Loaned to the Italian side for six months last season, the 26-year-old striker (10 goals, 3 assists in 22 appearances) will not be returning to Turin. Repeated changes to the structure of the deal prompted PSG to end discussions with the Serie A club. As a result, Kolo Muani is still seeking an exit, aware that he no longer features in Luis Enrique’s plans.

Tottenham, Newcastle and Aston Villa Lurking

The Bondy-born forward remains highly sought after in England. Tottenham, looking to reinforce their attack following the departures of Heung-min Son and James Maddison, could make a renewed move. But the Spurs are not alone.

At Newcastle, the expected departure of Alexander Isak to Liverpool for around £130 million leaves a gap up front that Kolo Muani could fill. Meanwhile, Aston Villa are also preparing a late push to secure his services before the window closes.

Tense Final Hours for PSG

One thing is certain: the future of PSG’s No. 23 will be decided in the final hours of the transfer window. Whether the French club will agree to part with a player still on a long-term contract, whose Parisian career already seems behind him, remains to be seen.
