PSG Chief’s Rant Doomed Juventus to Open Tottenham Swoop for Outcast | OneFootball

After talks with Juventus collapsed, PSG has loaned Randal Kolo Muani to Tottenham Hotspur for the 2025-26 season, according to journalist Ben Jacobs. The move gives the French forward a chance to regain the form he showed in Italy, as a permanent transfer wasn’t financially feasible.

In the final hours of the summer transfer window, Kolo Muani had been linked with Aston Villa and Newcastle United, but Tottenham secured the deal for the season.

Spurs have started the Premier League campaign strongly, winning two of their first three matches. However, a recent loss to Bournemouth prompted a concerning reaction from an insider.

Sports Zone reports that, tired of Juventus’ offers and bad faith during negotiations for Kolo Muani, Nasser Al-Khelaifi finally picked up the phone and was very direct with the Piedmontese club’s executives.

Al-Khelaifi said, “You’ve been mocking us for several weeks, it’s over. You will not get your way with me. I will remember your methods—trust me on that,” before asking the player’s agent to find a solution with other clubs.

Tottenham Receive Concerning Message

On a recent edition of ESPN FC, journalist Julien Laurens shared a concerning message to Thomas Frank and his team, noting that he has questions about whether Kolo Muani will have an impact on the attack this season.

“But I’m not sure [about] him arriving at the club,” Laurens said. “And yet there’s Richarlison and [Dominic] Solanke, and I can see him playing ahead of them, too, if he does better and if he takes his chances and stuff like that.

“I’m just not sure how much this moved the needle for Spurs in a huge season where they would be back in the Champions League, have quite a tough fixture list in that league phase, plus the league where, as we saw already against Bournemouth, they were so inoffensive.

“I’m not sure, Kolo Muani, if you bring him instead of Richarlison in the team that lost to Bournemouth on Saturday in the whole 90 minutes, that Kolo Muani changes this. I’m not sure this was the right profile, but at least they just have, again, another body.”
