Last year, when discussing the rumors of the departures of Marco Verratti and Neymar, Luis Enrique declared: “ my words say a lot but my actions will say more “. Today, this statement takes on even more weight when we see the treatment reserved for Randal Cole Muani.
In public, the coach of PSG explains to rely on his attacker. This was again the case at the post-match press conference on Saturday, after the victory against RC Lens. “ I count on all my players. This is my idea as a coach and I am willing to change my mind at any time. (…) I don't complain about any player “, he explained.
That's for words. But what do the actions say? In fact, the Asturian technician no longer counts on the French international. Established only twice this season, the former Nantes player has tumbled down the offensive hierarchy. Since the break, number 23 has only played ten minutes.
The Premier League is up for grabs Randal Kolo Muani
If we follow the Enrique theorem, the probability of seeing “RKM” leave the capital in the coming months skyrockets. And all the more so since several clubs would be under the spell. In England, some of them would have already shown up.
According to information from Sky Sportthe Parisian management would have received loan proposals with an option to purchase. As for the player, long determined to establish himself in his favorite club, reason would have taken over. The priority now is to regain playing time to relaunch his career and keep his place in the French team.
Liverpool FC
Among the twenty Premier League teams, three can be a realistic base for the vice-world champion. One of them is none other than Liverpool. THE Redsalready interested, when the Canary spread its wings to leave FC Nantes, could return to the charge.
In attack, Arne Slot has no shortage of solutions but none particularly stands out apart from Mohamed Salah. The winger, who cannot be defeated in the Dutchman's eleven, is, on the other hand, highly coveted by Saudi Arabia and… by the leaders of PSG. Luis Campos would even have already prepared a contract for the African star.
In the event of departure, the cards would be folded. In the center, Darwin Nuñez is not the most effective. On the left, Luis Diaz and Cody Gakpo share the position when Diogo Jota cannot do it. On the right, on the other hand, it is dead calm. Without the Egyptian, there will be a real place for the Habs.
Manchester United
Further east, towards Manchester Unitedthe interest dates back several seasons. In the summer of 2022, when he joined the capital, Kolo Muani was also approached by the Red Devils. Since then, a lot has changed at Old Trafford and the main unknown remains Ruben Amorim.
Erik ten Hag's successor appreciates hardworking center forwards, capable of taking the depth and the corridors. Rasmus Hojlund can do it but Joshua Zirkzee a little less. Knowing that he has already announced that he does not want to recruit any player from Sporting Portugal, therefore not Viktor Gyökeres, the rumor leading to the Parisian is gaining credibility.
Newcastle United
Finally, there remains Newcastle United. In the tough at the start of the season, the Magpies are in tenth place in the Premier League and could lose Alexander Isak this winter. The Swede, notably followed by Arsenal, cannot reach an agreement with his management to extend his contract. Enough to force a departure this winter? It's not impossible.
If so, the Kolo Muani opportunity should not escape Saudi leaders. Since his time in the Bundesliga, the Bondynois has created a serious reputation that his poor performances in Paris have not completely tainted. If nothing changes by then, the NUFC and the others will not be asked to enlist the Frenchie.
Passionate about sport since my childhood, I was lulled by the exploits of Juninho. A big fan of Olympique Lyonnais and Peter Sagan, I live to the rhythm of sporting events. Graduated with a degree in political science, I returned to my first passion by taking charge of the editorial staff of We Sport in July 2022, then more recently that of DailyMercato. Recently, I decided to leave the gray Pas-de-Calais for the sun of Andalusia.
