Little used in recent weeks at PSG by Luis Enrique, Randal Kolo Muani did not even come into play during the Coupe de France quarter-final against Nice (3-1), Wednesday at the Parc des Princes.
Randal Kolo Muani’s bad season continues. The French international, 25, took advantage of the absence of Ousmane Dembélé at the start of the year to make a series of starts with PSG as a right winger (he also played on the left against Orléans). But “Dembouz” made his return for the knockout stages of the Champions League and, at the same time, “RKM” fell in the hierarchy of Luis Enrique’s offensive players.
After four disappointing starts (no decisive action against Rennes, Monaco, Real Sociedad and Reims), Kolo Muani remained on the bench during the quarter-final of the Coupe de France against Nice (3-1), Wednesday evening at Princes Park. The situation has changed again in the offensive sector of PSG, since Bradley Barcola is less successful with the ball and Gonçalo Ramos has more playing time up front…
In danger in the French team?
Recruited for 95 million euros last August (third most expensive recruit in the club’s history behind Neymar and Kylian Mbappé), Kolo Muani has never displayed his flamboyant level of play from Frankfurt. Ligue 1 is much more closed than the Bundesliga and PSG is particularly awaited by its opponents. The former Nantes man has six goals and two assists in 19 league matches, and just one goal in eight Champions League matches.
The 2022 world vice-champion (who obviously could have given the third star to France without a save from Emiliano Martinez who has become legendary) is lucky to remain in the little papers of Didier Deschamps, the coach of the team of France, who will call him up for the next two preparation matches against Germany and Chile, on March 23 and 26. Will its participation in Euro 2024 in Germany be called into question?
