In difficulty since his arrival in Paris, Randal Kolo Muani received the support of his coach Didier Deschamps.
Recruited this summer by Paris Saint-Germain for 90 million euros, Randal Kolo Muani is struggling, for the moment, to justify the price of his transfer. Author of 3 goals (2 assists) in 11 matches played (all competitions) under his new colors, the former Nantes player is particularly criticized for his lack of efficiency in front of goal.
But despite mixed performances with PSG, the 24-year-old striker was once again called up by Didier Deschamps for this November gathering. Invited to a press conference this Monday, the French coach took the opportunity to defend the native of Bondy.
“You don’t love him enough.”
“You are too harsh on Kolo Muani. You don’t like him enough, you don’t see what he is capable of doing, even if he can do better… Certainly, in terms of efficiency, he can improve his game with his back to goal, but in terms of generosity he is a lot “thus launched DD to journalists.
And to add: “The expectation and analysis that many can make is that it’s Paris, we paid a significant price for it, so it must perform immediately, but don’t forget where it comes from. Kolo was not far from being more than decisive at the World Cup. Last year, in Germany, he had a very good season, he has to digest it too. The requirements are higher in Paris. He is someone who has significant potential but who also needs time to improve. »
