A few weeks before the opening of the winter transfer window, things are becoming clearer at PSG. According to Daniel Riolo, Paris SG has already made a colossal departure within Luis Enrique's squad.
PSG transfer market: Randal Kolo Muani is leaving
Recruited at a high price in the summer of 2023, Randal Kolo Muani is struggling to establish himself at Paris Saint-Germain. Starting only twice since the start of the season, the French striker has seen his playing time reduced dramatically. While rumors of a departure this winter are becoming more and more insistent, the former Eintracht Frankfurt player should not start the match against AJ Auxerre this Friday evening.
Indeed, Gonçalo Ramos, Paris Saint-Germain's other flagship offensive recruit, seems to have definitively won the trust of Luis Enrique. Returning from an injury sustained on the first day of the championship, the 23-year-old Portuguese international seems to better match the style of play desired by the Spanish coach. PSG therefore finds itself facing a dilemma.
After investing massively in the Kolo Muani – Gonçalo Ramos duo, the Parisian club sees one of its major assets remaining on the bench. And according to Daniel Riolo, there is no longer any doubt about the future of the former Nantes player in Paris.
“Kolo Muani is going to leave, a place in front will become available,” declared the sports journalist on RMC Sport. Still according to the same source, Luis Enrique would now be open to the arrival of a new caliber at the number 9 position.
Victor Osimhen finally at PSG this winter?
While Paris Saint-Germain seemed satisfied with its squad at the start of the season, the situation has changed in recent months. Luis Enrique, the Parisian coach, would have expressed internally his wish to strengthen certain positions in his team. According to RMC Sport, the Spanish technician would particularly like to strengthen the Parisian attack. The name of Victor Osimhen, the Neapolitan striker, comes up repeatedly. Daniel Riolo confirmed this information in After Foot, referring to serious discussions between the two clubs.
“Luis Enrique goes back on what he said, he wants reinforcement. He realizes he was wrong. Particularly on a file which he did not want this summer, namely Victor Osimhen which has a much lower price. Last summer, De Laurentiis demanded €220m for Osimhen and Kvaratskhelia. Now this package is finished. And there could be an opening this winter, that’s being discussed quite seriously,” explained Riolo. It now remains to be seen whether this rumor is confirmed during the winter transfer window.
