While the France team is currently continuing its qualifying campaign for the 2026 World Cup, Randal Kolo Muani is one of the players who was unable to join Didier Deschamps' group. Loaned to Tottenham by PSG since the start of the season, the striker was injured in mid-September and has not played again since. But his return is becoming clearer.

Thirteen minutes on September 16 during a Champions League match against Villarreal, and then nothing. Randal Kolo Muani has since been sidelined with a thigh problem. However, his recovery seems to be on track, as confirmed on Monday byEvening Standard. The media indicated that the former Eintracht Frankfurt had turned away from the training pitches just before the Spurs match against Leeds.

Too short to be part of Didier Deschamps' list, but in the process, he took part last Friday in a friendly match played behind closed doors against Watford. While waiting for the end of the international window and the resumption of the Premier League, Randal Kolo Muani still has a short week of training ahead of him.

Kolo Muani in the group against Aston Villa?

Still according to theESthe striker should be able to claim a place in Thomas Frank's group for the meeting scheduled for October 19, with the reception of Aston Villa (3 p.m., 8th day). Among the other injured Spurs players, the news is less good for another center forward, in this case Dominic Solanke, whose ankle had to be operated on at the end of September, imposing a return date around November.

Without Randal Kolo Muani and the others absent, Tottenham nevertheless managed a good start to the season with a third place after seven days. The Londoners are only two points behind the leader, Arsenal.
