"Could be a concern" – Doctor shows concern over player Tottenham are hoping to sign this month
Yesterday at 03:03 PM
Tottenham are strongly interested in signing Randal Kolo Muani with speculations intensifying over the last week.
It was reported that the Daniel Levy personally flew to France to negotiate a deal with PSG. However, they face strong competition from Juventus and Manchester United, with the Italian giants currently believed to be leading the race.
Juventus director Cristiano Giuntoli has hinted at significant progress in negotiations, stating that there could be "positive news over the next week" regarding both Randal Kolo Muani and Barcelona defender Ronald Araújo.
This announcement has fuelled speculation that the Serie A side may be close to sealing a deal for the French international.
Despite this, Tottenham are reportedly unwilling to back down and plan to fight for the player until the end.
Injury expert Dr. Rajpal Brar has urged Tottenham to carefully manage Kolo Muani's fitness if they succeed in securing his signature.
Speaking to Tottenham News, Dr. Brar highlighted the forward's lack of playing time at PSG this season as a potential issue.
He said:
"If the idea is to have him come in immediately and play big minutes, then his lack of minutes this season could be a concern."
"If there is a plan to bed him in gradually and allow him to adapt, it's not all that concerning.
"My advice would be to gradually ramp up his minutes in the first few weeks rather than expect him to start every game right away."
Kolo Muani joined PSG last summer in a blockbuster €90 million move from Eintracht Frankfurt. However, the forward has struggled to establish himself under manager Luis Enrique, registering just two goals and one assist in 14 appearances across all competitions.
Despite his underwhelming start to life in Paris, Kolo Muani's performances during his time at Eintracht Frankfurt have showcased his immense potential. During the 2022–23 Bundesliga season, he netted 15 goals and provided 11 assists, solidifying his reputation as one of Europe's most exciting attacking talents. His overall record at the German club includes 26 goals and 17 assists, making him a highly sought-after player in the current transfer market.
For Tottenham, Kolo Muani could represent a significant addition to their attacking options, particularly with uncertainty surrounding Richarlison's fitness and a lack of depth in the forward line. Manager Ange Postecoglou is believed to be keen on bringing in a versatile attacker who can operate across the front three, and Kolo Muani fits the profile perfectly.
It remains to be seen whether Tottenham can pull of this marquee signing or not but if they do, it will be a huge statement of intent from Spurs.
