The January transfer window has arrived, and Randal Kolo Muani’s future at Paris Saint-Germain remains unclear. The French striker has faced challenges in making an impact this season, casting doubt on his place in Luis Enrique’s strategy.
At 26 years old, Randal Kolo Muani has accumulated only 453 minutes of playing time across all competitions, struggling to secure a regular starting role. His omission from PSG’s squad for the final three matches of 2024 has further intensified rumors of a possible exit.
Premier League clubs are said to be showing interest, with Chelsea reportedly leading the race. TEAMtalk suggests the Blues are drawn to Kolo Muani’s attacking versatility, while Arsenal is also monitoring the forward, with Mikel Arteta contemplating a potential January move.
Tottenham Hotspur have entered the race, with Ange Postecoglou looking to bolster his injury-hit squad. The Paris Saint-Germain striker is reportedly on Spurs’ radar as they gear up for an active winter transfer window.
Should Randal Kolo Muani move to the Premier League?
As speculation about Kolo Muani’s future intensifies, French football expert Robin Bairner shared his insights on the latest episode of the PSG Talking podcast. Bairner suggested that the Bundesliga could be a better fit for the forward than the Premier League.
“I think the Bundesliga might suit him better due to his attributes, particularly his pace,” Bairner explained. “He’s not the most physically dominant center forward, but he excels in transitional play and is effective around the box. His previous success in the Bundesliga could be a significant factor for German clubs considering a move for him. I wouldn’t be surprised to see him end up there.”
“The Premier League transfer rumors are intriguing, as the league remains a dream destination for many players,” Bairner noted. “If a loan move does materialize—which appears the most likely scenario right now—he might view it as a chance to prove himself and secure a long-term future in the Premier League. On the other hand, the Bundesliga could serve as a reliable backup plan, no matter how the next few months unfold.”
