Who can splash out the money for Kolo Muani?

Even though he is regular under Didier Deschamps at the French national team, Paris Saint-Germain boss Luis Enrique apparently does not count on Randal Kolo Muani anymore. In the last five Ligue 1 games, the forward spent only 28 minutes on the pitch.

He was benched against Bayern Munich and RB Salzburg in the Champions League, while Enrique crossed him out of the squad for the duel against Lyon three days ago and the same fate probably expects him tonight against Monaco (23.00) as well.

The conclusion is simple - Enrique does not see Kolo Muani in his future plans, which is no wonder, especially knowing that the Spaniard did not want the player in the first place. Namely, the 26-year-old reportedly joined the ranks of the French Champions only because of fantastic relationships between PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi and Kolo Muani's agent, Moussa Sissoko.

"I do feel bitterness toward the people running PSG'

Therefore, in the name of friendship, Al-Khelaifi splashed out €95 million last September, signing the forward from the German Eintracht Frankfurt and the investment did not pay off, to say the least. Only 11 goals and seven assists in an extremely offensive and productive club like PSG are far from satisfactory, especially compared to previous Saints' forwards like Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Edinson Cavani, or Kylian Mbappe.

Hence, Enrique seems to be right, but one problem remains - who can afford Kolo Muani? His contract expires in 2028, and he costs the Parisians more than €12 million per year. Monaco, RB Leipzig, and Man United have been mentioned as interested parties, but none of the three can or wants to fulfil either the player's nor the club's conditions, and both will have to reduce their demands by mutual consent. Otherwise, PSG won't earn anything, and Kolo Muani won't play.
