The future of Randal Kolo Muani’s loan at Tottenham is up in the air at the moment.
The French performer signed on loan from PSG in the summer transfer window but has failed to really make his mark on the Premier League.
Kolo Muani has scored twice in the Champions League this season, but the versatile attacker has failed to score from 15 outings in the Premier League.
Drab form in the Premier League is what cost Ange Postecoglou his job last summer and now, Thomas Frank needs players he can count upon in the Premier League, too.
Randal Kolo Muani won’t leave in the next 24 hours
In recent days, it’s been claimed that Kolo Muani is in talks with Juventus over a move to Italy for the second half of the campaign.
However, Fabrizio Romano is the man with his fingers on the pulse during the transfer window and he’s explained why Kolo Muani won’t be going anywhere at least in the next 24 hours.
He said on his own YouTube channel: “Let’s say that Juventus, as I told you, have made their calls in the last 24-48 hours.
“There were new contacts again this evening. Juve wanted to show their appreciation, which doesn’t end there, for Randal Kolo Muani.

“It’s an appreciation we know well, it’s been going on for over a year, he’s the striker Juventus considers perfect, but today there’s a high wall from Tottenham, especially manager Thomas Frank, who doesn’t want to release other attacking players.
“So Juve is there. If Tottenham were to play between now and next week, on Monday, to open the door for Kolo Muani’s exit, Juventus is ready to make a move, otherwise, in short, Juventus will make different assessments. It’s clear that they won’t wait forever.”
Tottenham would be wise to offload Kolo Muani
It’s not really worked out for the man with nine goals in 31 international appearances at Tottenham, and he perhaps isn’t of the required quality to play in the Premier League.
Going back to PSG feels unlikely and now it will be interesting to see whether a move to Juve can materialise before the end of the transfer window.
Fill in the blank: Randal Kolo Muani’s loan move at Tottenham has been _/10 so far…
Kolo Muani’s departure would allow Tottenham to free up a space in the squad for the club to go out and potentially sign a proper forward before the end of the window.
Frank needs players capable of producing the goods when it comes to the Premier League and ultimately, the player has come up short in that sense.
