Randal Kolo Muani, the 26-year-old striker signed by Paris Saint-Germain until June 2028, was one of the club’s biggest transfers when he arrived at the summer mercato in September 2023. But he has failed to establish himself and a departure is looming. Le Parisien’s Marc Mechenoua assures us that the Parisian club knows how to handle the French international. The player is not for sale, but an offer of €50m would change everything. It’s a strategy to avoid loans and rely on a direct sale to move on to something else.
“Le club a fait une stratégie pour Kolo Muani !
Officiellement, le joueur n’est pas à vendre, mais si une offre de 50M arrive, le club sera chaud pour le vendre rapidement.
Une offre similaire était arrivée l’été dernier du BVB a 50M€
Marc Mechenoua.”
PSG are well aware that a loan could be dangerous. Especially if an option to buy is negotiated today. The player’s value is quite low, whereas after a loan period, it could be higher.
So you have to be careful with options to buy, as they are often a waste of money for clubs. Kolo Muani will be leaving, or at least the club is behaving as if it were a foregone conclusion. However, after a major investment, PSG are walking on eggshells with this player.
