Since the start of the QSI project, President Nasser Al-Khelaïfi has often been involved in the Paris Saint-Germain transfer window, imposing players on his coaches. And it has not always succeeded, with in particular the recruitment of Randal Kolo Muani in 2023 which is starting to seriously resemble one of the biggest flops in Parisian history.
Where did it go Randal Cole Muani ? Only number 9 of the squad with Gonçalo Ramoswho has just returned from injury, the French international has not played since December 6 and the draw againstALSO Auxerre (0-0). Besides, Luis Enrique did not call him up for the last two days of Ligue 1.
PSG's 3rd biggest transfer
A departure therefore seems to have become the only solution for First Classif he wishes to benefit from more playing time during the second part of the season. And teeth are starting to grit, since the striker was still paid between €90 and €100 million in the summer of 2023, the 3rd biggest transfer in the history of the PSG behind Kylian Mbappé (€180M) and Neymar (222M€). In terms of salary, he works out at just under €13M gross, the fourth highest in the current squad… all that for 453 minutes of play and two small goals.
A transfer signed Kolo Muani
Whose fault is it? During the summer of 2023, with the departures of Lionel Messi and of Neymarthe opportunity presented itself to PSG to recruit an international number 9. Several names were mentioned as with Robert Lewandowskibut above all Victor Osimhenwhom the Portuguese leader had rubbed shoulders with LOSC in the past. It is however Nasser Al-Khelafi who would have chosen! Presumably seduced by his performances in World Cupthe president of PSG would have insisted on betting everything on Randal Kolo Muani… for the result that we know.
