Tottenham are pushing to make late moves in the transfer window and have now turned their attention to Paris Saint-Germain forward Randal Kolo Muani, with negotiations understood to be underway.
With time ticking in the final hours of the British summer transfer window, every Tottenham Hotspur fan will be hoping that the club can still manage to get a few deals over the line.
For those who have spent the day refreshing their feeds, one name in particular has been strongly linked with Tottenham, and that is Randal Kolo Muani.
Earlier today, we reported that Tottenham had made an enquiry about Muani as they looked to join the race alongside Juventus, with the clock running down on deadline day.
Spurs missed out on a January move for Kolo Muani in the winter window, as the striker preferred a transfer to Juventus instead.
Tottenham negotiating with PSG for Randal Kolo Muani
The French forward has been linked with Tottenham in the past, most notably during the winter window, and it appears that Spurs remain firmly interested in him.
Tottenham insider Paul O’Keefe has now provided more detail on the club’s pursuit, revealing that Spurs are in active talks with Paris Saint-Germain regarding a deal for Randal Kolo Muani, with all indications suggesting it could begin as an initial loan deal.

Why Tottenham want Randal Kolo Muani
Tottenham’s interest in another forward is understandable, especially with Dominic Solanke’s injury likely to keep him out for longer than originally expected.
It has since been confirmed that Solanke could miss more than two weeks of action, with ankle surgery now appearing increasingly likely.
That leaves Tottenham light in attack, as Richarlison, who has had his fair share of injury issues, is the only recognised number nine available.
Randal Kolo Muani, who scored eight goals in 16 appearances during his loan spell with Juventus, offers a proven option at this level and could help ease the burden on the frontline.
