Amid an injury crisis that has decimated their squad, Tottenham Hotspur are plotting an ambitious move for Paris Saint-Germain striker Randal Kolo Muani, sources close to the club have revealed.
The North London club, currently managing with approximately ten first-team players sidelined, has already secured goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky from Slavia Prague but is now setting their sights on a marquee attacking signing.
Kolo Muani, who completed a blockbuster £74 million transfer to PSG from Eintracht Frankfurt last summer, has found himself struggling for consistent minutes in the star-studded Parisian lineup. The situation has opened up the possibility of a January move, with both loan and permanent transfer options being explored.
When pressed about the speculation surrounding Kolo Muani, Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou remained characteristically measured while confirming the club's active pursuit of reinforcements.
"We are still trying to help the squad and help the players," Postecoglou stated. "The club is working hard in a number of areas."
The Australian tactician further elaborated on the team's offensive needs: "Not a centre-forward but I think we need some help in the front half if we can get it. Obviously Wilson [Odobert] is still a fair way off, Richy's [Richarlison] coming back but we've got to be really careful with him."
Industry insiders suggest that Kolo Muani's tenure at PSG could be shorter than initially expected, with the French international unlikely to remain at the Parc des Princes beyond the current season. A January loan arrangement could serve as a stopgap solution if a permanent deal proves unfeasible.
Postecoglou also took time to commend Dominic Solanke's recent performances while hinting at incoming transfers: "He has been brilliant for us. Hopefully in the very near future we get some help for him and then I think we'll see him go to another level."
