With key players sidelined due to injuries, suspensions and illness, the team operated under significant pressure. Spurs recently secured the signing of goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky from Slavia Prague and are now focused on meeting their attacking needs. Postecoglou hinted at the possibility of additional arrivals, particularly in the forward line, to ease the burden on players like Solanke.
Among Tottenham’s top targets is Kolo Muani, who joined Paris Saint-Germain in a £74million move from Eintracht Frankfurt in 2023 but has struggled to secure a regular playing time this season, making him a potential candidate for a transfer or loan in January. It has been reported that former Spurs chief executive Fabio Paratici attempted to sign Kolo Muani before his move to PSG and now his availability represents a new opportunity for the north London club to bring him to the Premier League.
Asked directly about the rumors regarding Kolo Muani, Postecoglou remained cautious. “ Listen, we always try to help the team and help the players,”
he declared. “We are still down significant numbers. We will have around 10 first team players out tomorrow. It’s not easy, so we’re always looking to help the playing group. The club is working hard in a number of areas. »
A loan considered
Asked if he was referring to new signings or players returning from injury, Postecoglou added: “ Both. That’s what we can do, I hope, but I wouldn’t suggest tomorrow.
“He’s not a centre-forward, but I think we need help in the first half if we can get it. Obviously Wilson (Odobert) is still a long way away, Richy (Richarlison) is coming back but we have to be very careful with him, we have to try to keep him. Once again, it has to be the right choice. Will this happen during this transfer window? I’m not sure, but we know that if all goes well, in seven days Richy will be back and he will definitely help Dom.
“(Solanke) was brilliant for us. I hope in the very near future we will have some help for him and I think we will see him go to another level. » Kolo Muani faces a crucial career decision in the coming weeks. Reports suggest the French striker is not expected to stay at PSG beyond this season, with a January loan move a strong possibility if a permanent move does not materialize.
