Randal Kolo Muani: Arsenal and Tottenham tipped as top transfer options but Chelsea move unlikely

Randal Kolo Muani looks set to be among the most prominent names of the January transfer window. The France international forward is facing an uncertain future at Paris Saint-Germain, who are said to be open to the prospect of allowing him to leave on loan this month.
Kolo Muani has made 14 appearances across all competitions for reigning French champions PSG under Luis Enrique so far this term, scoring twice, but started just two games in Ligue 1 and none in the Champions League. The 26-year-old has not played at all since early December and has been omitted from the last five matchday squads, including for Sunday’s French Super Cup win over Monaco in Doha.
Monaco are said to have seen a loan offer for Kolo Muani rejected as they seek a replacement for the injured Folarin Balogun, while Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United, Tottenham and Aston Villa have also been linked with his services, along with other potential suitors such as RB Leipzig and AC Milan.
Which Premier League club needs Kolo Muani the most and where might he fit in best? Standard Sport examines the best destination for a player that has largely struggled to impress at PSG but is still a key asset for France and was a star for previous club Eintracht Frankfurt.
Simon Collings: Arsenal are getting close to the point now that they simply need a body given the injuries they have had in the forward line. Kolo Muani, however, would be much more than that and, if he was available on loan, would be an astute signing.
