Didier Deschamps called for patience for Randal Kolo Muani, recalling his promising history in the national team and in the Bundesliga.
Yet little in sight since his arrival at Paris Saint-Germain, Randal Kolo Muani is still supported by Didier Deschamps. The coach of the France team reaffirmed his confidence in the attacker, despite the criticism he is the subject of. The Bayonnais highlighted the potential of the former Nantes player, who still has to adapt to his new club.
“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 does a lot. The expectation and analysis that many can make is that it’s Paris, we paid a significant price for it, so it must be effective immediately but don’t forget where it comes from,” said thus declared DD at a press conference.
“Kolo was not far from being more than decisive at the World Cup. Last year, in Germany, he had a very good season. It has to digest too. The requirements are higher in Paris. He is someone who has significant potential but who also needs time to improve,” judged the double world champion.
