Arriving in the last minutes of the summer transfer window, Randal Kolo Muani should play his first minutes in the PSG jersey this Friday against Nice (9 p.m.).
He arrived in general confusion, after a tedious and grueling standoff against the management of Eintracht Frankfurt. “ It’s actually last minute! I am very happy, very proud to be here. And then I saw that the President did a lot of things so that I could come and I am very proud to be there », exclaimed Randal Kolo Muani in comments transcribed on the official website of Paris Saint-Germain.
“ It’s a club that I supported when I was little, and it’s where I grew up. This is my city, so I wanted to do everything to come here. It’s always nice to go back to basics and try to go as far as possible with the club you love. And then I’m happy to see what the coach is putting in place with this new team and this project which appeals to me enormously. Now we have to get to work! », continued the French international. And that’s good, since “RKM” should be launched into the deep end this Friday evening, against Nice (kick-off at 9 p.m.).
Whether he is a starter or coming off the bench, Randal Kolo Muani will have the opportunity to make an impression for the first time. But in what role? The team announces the use of the vice-world champion on the right side, in the role played until now by his friend Ousmane Dembélé. Seeing Luis Enrique opt for this option would be a bit of a surprise. Because in Frankfurt as with the French team, the native of Bondy had made his mark in a center forward role. First elements of response this Friday evening.
