Interest in wantaway Paris Saint-Germain star Randal Kolo Muani is ramping up with a third Premier League team reportedly entering the race for the striker. The Frenchman joined the Champions League side from Eintracht Frankfurt in 2023 for £79million having scored 26 goals and assisted 17 in 50 matches.
He had also starred for his national team at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, coming off the bench to score in the semi-final against Morocco before starting in the final versus Argentina. Things have not clicked for him at PSG, however, with the forward enduring a disappointing maiden campaign at the Parc des Princes, finding the net just nine times in 40 games.
This season Kolo Muani's stock has dropped even further, with boss Luis Enrique limiting the 26-year-old to just two league starts so far. Now the striker is on the radar of a shock Premier League side after Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur showed interest last month, L'Equipe reports.
Randal Kolo Muani joined Paris Saint-Germain in 2023 but things have not worked out for him. The France international has starred for his national team and scored at the 2022 World Cup. Now Aston Villa who already have Jhon Duran and Ollie Watkins up front are interested.
Aston Villa already have England international Ollie Watkins and emerging star Jhon Duran as forward options but are exploring the idea of a move for Kolo Muani. Unai Emery's men have suffered a dip in form after an exhilarating start to the season which peaked with a 1-0 win over Bayern Munich in the Champions League.
