Spurs Secure Kolo Muani on Season-Long Loan

For the final hours of the summer transfer window, Tottenham Hotspur secured a season-long loan deal for Paris Saint-Germain forward Randal Kolo Muani. The 26-year-old French striker had long been on the radar of Premier League clubs including Manchester United, Chelsea and West Ham, but Spurs moved quickly after agreeing personal terms. Kolo Muani, who spent the second half of last season on loan at Juventus and scored eight goals in 16 Serie A appearances, arrives as Tottenham’s fourth senior signing of the summer after Mohammed Kudus, Joao Palhinha and Xavi Simons.

The forward, capped 31 times by France and a scorer in the 2022 World Cup semi-final against Morocco, brings versatility and experience, having also won two Ligue 1 titles with PSG. Known for his pace, aerial ability and intelligent movement, Kolo Muani is viewed as a more technical option compared to Richarlison. His signing is particularly important given concerns over Dominic Solanke’s ankle injury, which left Spurs without a recognised centre-forward in their recent defeat to Bournemouth.
