In difficulty since his arrival at Paris Saint-Germain, Randal Kolo Muani is trying to regain his confidence. He has no plans to leave this summer.
This season and until now, Paris Saint-Germain has avoided numerous disappointments and other disappointments of all kinds. On a sporting level, Luis Enrique’s team was able to respond in important moments, despite some serious downturns per period. As for the workforce, the observation is generally the same, but a few cases are still debated. This is the case of Manuel Ugarte far from the level which would have justified the 60 million euros placed on him by PSG last summer. This is also the case for Randal Kolo Muani, on a much larger scale.
And yet, Luis Enrique wants to remain optimistic about the French international. Recruited for a huge amount (around 95 million euros), the former FC Nantes player is struggling in his first Parisian season. Only nine goals in thirty-seven games with PSG. A performance obviously very far from the expectations placed on him by his management. But his coach believes in it, as he said Wednesday evening after Paris’ success against Lorient: “ Randal is a top player and a great rookie, even if he’s not 100% confident right now. He doesn’t have luck with him, but he has an incredible capacity for work. »
A welcome parenthesis
In today’s edition, The Team took stock of the real situation of the French team striker. The media interviewed people close to Kolo Muani for whom there is still hope for the future. And according to them, the salvation of the former Eintracht Frankfurt gunner could well come from his summer with the Blues. On the occasion of Euro 2024 (June 14-July 14), Randal Kolo Muani could benefit from a less stressful context for him, to regain confidence in his game and his abilities. The confidence that Didier Deschamps continues to place in him should also be beneficial to him.
Under contract with Paris until June 2028, Randal Kolo Muani still sees himself in Paris and, according to an indiscretion from the sports media, does not plan to leave Paris this summer, while PSG is looking for a winger. Well aware that he will eventually have to return to a performance close to that which he had when he played in the Bundesliga, the native of Bondy still has a little time ahead of him. But how much?
