Real fears that €35m Tottenham star is on his way to Liverpool

There are real fears among clubs that Liverpool will strike a deal to sign a Tottenham Hotspur star.

Is €35m too much for Randal Kolo Muani? Juventus don't think so, says Gazzetta Dello Sport, and they're hoping to strike a deal with Paris Saint-Germain to sign the forward.

Kolo Muani was on loan at Juventus for the second half of last season and he did brilliantly. Eight goals in 16 Serie A fixtures was a great return - but they weren't able to get him this season.

Instead, the France forward went to Tottenham Hotspur in what has been a disaster. Spurs may actually get relegated this season and Kolo Muani has scored a solitary Premier League goal.

Despite that poor performance, there are fears in Italy that he's off to Liverpool. That's apparently the big fear of Juventus - that the Reds will offer a financial package beyond what they can manage.

There's little doubt that PSG wish to sell this summer and Juve are trying to position themselves for a deal. Liverpool, though, will view Kolo Muani as a possible squad player who could fill the void left by Hugo Ekitike's injury.

And it's worth pointing out that this is merely the latest in a series of reports out of Italy that Liverpool want Kolo Muani. Maybe there's something in that. Or maybe it's an attempt to toy with Juventus a bit in negotiations.

Though there is an angle that makes sense for Liverpool. Kolo Muani is a very talented player, even if he's struggled at Spurs - but everyone should remember that all players are struggling at Spurs right now and they're not all terrible.

The forward is a versatile player who can operate on the flank and through the middle. He's played in several countries now and can deliver goals when it all clicks together.

That is, ultimately, the kind of player Liverpool need to fill in while Ekitike regains his fitness. And €35m may well offer them value for money in this market.

Randal Kolo Muani: Situation Summary

Tottenham Struggles and Exit Strategy

As of 22 April 2026, Randal Kolo Muani’s loan spell at Tottenham Hotspur from PSG has been widely labelled "disastrous." The 27-year-old has managed just one goal and one assist in 25 Premier League appearances, contributing to Spurs' precarious 18th-place standing. While he has fared better in the Champions League with four goals, his domestic form has seen his average FotMob rating drop to 6.31. Consequently, Kolo Muani has reportedly decided to leave North London this summer, having no desire to remain at the club following their dismal campaign.

Transfer Race and Market Value

PSG are ready to permanently part with the forward, who originally joined for €95 million, with his current valuation plummeting to approximately €35 million. Liverpool have emerged as a surprise suitor, identifying him as a versatile option to bolster their attack following a serious injury to Hugo Ekitike. However, Juventus remains a primary contender, relying on Kolo Muani's desire to return to Turin where he spent a successful loan stint in 2025. With his PSG contract running until 2028, a summer move is viewed as inevitable to revitalise his career ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
