Randal Kolo Muani is set to return to Paris Saint-Germain after a mixed loan spell at Tottenham Hotspur, but his stay in the French capital is expected to be brief, with Roma reportedly on the verge of submitting a formal offer for the French international, and Como also emerging as an interested party.

According to TRT Sport, as noted by Calciomercato.it, Roma are close to making the first official approach to PSG for Kolo Muani’s signature.

The Frenchman managed only five goals in 41 appearances across all competitions at Spurs, largely deployed out of position on the right flank rather than as the central striker he prefers. His numbers were underwhelming, but interest in him remains considerable given his quality in seasons past.

Juventus lose ground in Kolo Muani race as Champions League failure takes its toll

Juventus had long been considered the frontrunner for Kolo Muani, having already held preliminary discussions with PSG over a potential deal.

However, their failure to qualify for the Champions League has weakened their hand considerably, with both Roma and Como, both of whom will compete in Europe’s elite competition next season, now better placed to offer the striker the sporting platform he desires.

Turkish clubs have also registered interest, though Kolo Muani is understood to have no desire to move outside the top five European leagues at this stage of his career.
