Fabrizio Romano has shared an encouraging update on Tottenham’s pursuit of PSG star Randal Kolo Muani.
Spurs are among the clubs strongly interested in securing the services of the French forward. The North London club made the first move last week, with reports stating that Daniel Levy has personally flown to France to negotiate a move with PSG.
The North London club are said to be keen on structuring a loan-to-buy agreement with PSG, aiming to take the player on loan initially and finalise a permanent move at the end of the season.
Despite their efforts, Juventus are currently seen as leading the race for the 26-year-old. Juventus director Cristiano Giuntoli recently hinted at progress, stating there could be “positive news over the next week” regarding both Kolo Muani and Barcelona defender Ronald Araújo.
Despite this, Tottenham are reportedly unwilling to back down and plan to fight for the player until the end.
Romano: Spurs make fresh contact with PSG
Fabrizio Romano shared the latest developments on the transfer saga, confirming that both Tottenham and Juventus have made fresh contact with PSG. Manchester United remain in the mix but are unlikely to make a move unless Marcus Rashford departs this month.
Romano posted on X:
“Juventus and Tottenham have both made contact again today with Paris Saint-Germain for Randal Kolo Muani.”
“Manchester United called last week and remain informed on developments but Rashford exit will be key factor.”
“PSG insist on their conditions, but RKM will 100% leave.”

Kolo Muani saga expected to go down the wire
While Juventus may be ahead in the race to secure Muani, the fact that Spurs are not giving up is an encouraging update.
Daniel Levy has recently demonstrated his ability to outmaneuver top clubs in the transfer market, notably beating Bayern Munich to sign Radu Drăgușin and Barcelona to secure Lucas Bergvall.
With time ticking away in the transfer window, the Kolo Muani saga is expected to go down to the wire.
