Tottenham Hotspur have been handed a huge boost in their pursuit of Randal Kolo Muani after a new report shed light on the information that is coming out of the forward’s camp ahead of the summer transfer window.
Tottenham were beaten to the signature of Kolo Muani by Juventus during the January transfer window and the striker has impressed in his loan spell at Turin so far.
The Frenchman has scored five times in 10 league outings for the Bianconeri, but his long-term future at the Serie A side is thought to be in doubt.
Last week, GiveMeSport revealed that Spurs are ready to pounce on Kolo Muani this summer if Juventus do not sign him permanently, and a fresh update has now boosted the Lilywhites’ chances of doing so.
Randal Kolo Muani’s representatives are making the right noises
Transfer market expert Graeme Bailey has now revealed that the 26-year-old’s camp are now letting potential suitors know that he is available for a summer transfer.
The journalist explains that Kolo Muani might not be in the plans of new Juventus boss Igor Tudor, which is why there are doubts over whether the club want to sign him permanently.
Bailey told TBR Football about the striker: “It is coming to pass now that his people are letting everyone know that he’ll be on the move again this summer.
“Things have not gone according to plan at Juve, he’s playing well but they’ve just changed manager and he didn’t start on the week. It’s now completely up in the air whether Juve will make the deal permanent.”
Kolo Muani deal may depend on Mathys Tel
Given that Tottenham Hotspur secured Mathys Tel on loan after failing in their pursuit of Kolo Muani in January, it is fair to assume that a move for the PSG man in the summer could depend on what Spurs decide to do regarding the Bayern loanee.
Over recent days, some sources from Germany have claimed that Tottenham are not willing to activate the £45m option to buy Tel and are instead hoping to renegotiate a discounted deal with Bayern.
Whether or not the Bundesliga club are willing to soften their stance regarding the 19-year-old may end up influencing whether or not Spurs push ahead with an offer for Kolo Muani.
