Man Utd Attempt to Take Transfer Lead Over Newcastle, West Ham for €30M-Rated PSG Flop | OneFootball

With the January transfer window nearing, Randal Kolo Muani’s future at Paris Saint-Germain is becoming a hot topic, driven by his limited playing time this season.

The situation escalated on Sunday when the French forward was left out of PSG’s matchday group against Olympique Lyonnais, raising further doubts about his role under Luis Enrique.

So far, Kolo Muani has struggled to establish himself as PSG’s main striker, recording just 453 minutes across all competitions. This lack of opportunities has fueled speculation about a potential January exit.

According to L’Équipe, a loan deal—potentially with an option to buy—appears to be the most likely scenario. Manchester United had shown strong interest, but their focus has shifted since Ruben Amorim’s arrival.

RB Leipzig remain interested, though talks are still in the early stages. Meanwhile, AS Monaco could emerge as serious contenders as they look to strengthen their attack following Folarin Balogun’s injury.

Mail Sport reports that Manchester United are interested in signing Kolo Muani on a loan deal this January. Nonetheless, the information doesn’t reveal whether it would be a straight loan or have an option attached to it.

According to Benjamin Quarez and Marc Mechenoua of Le Parisien, Manchester United reached out a few weeks ago, while West Ham, RB Leipzig, and several Serie A clubs have also shown interest. They add that a loan deal with an option to buy seems the most likely outcome.

Last month, Football Transfers reported that PSG are considering loaning out Kolo Muani during the January transfer window, with Newcastle and West Ham emerging as the main contenders. While no official asking price has been set, Transfermarkt currently values the forward at €30 million.
