West Ham, Newcastle, and Arsenal are reportedly interested in the Paris Saint-Germain attacker.
In light of Newcastle United’s continued interest, CaughtOffside reports that Arsenal will shortly begin negotiations with Kolo Muani and may make a move for him during the January transfer window.
In recent months, a number of strikers have been linked to the Gunners; Alexander Isak, Victor Gyokeres, and Victor Osimhen are all predicted to make high-profile moves to the Emirates. Muani would, however, offer a far less expensive, but initially brief, option on a loan agreement.
Since joining PSG from Bundesliga team Eintracht Frankfurt in 2023, Muani has made 53 appearances, contributing seven assists and 11 goals. A loan agreement may be in the works, though, as the £79 million attacker has not had the impact at PSG that he had hoped for.
They all need striker assistance because United’s Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee have been struggling for goals lately, Newcastle could lose Isak, who hasn’t signed a new contract at St. James’ Park, and West Ham hasn’t been very effective offensively this season.
Despite not being a natural number nine, Kai Havertz has been playing as a striker, leaving Arsenal without many choices up front. In addition, Gabriel Jesus has not been able to provide the goals his team needs, therefore Mikel Arteta, the manager of the Gunners, may be eager to bring in Muani as a temporary fix as the team looks to win the Premier League for the first time since 2003–04.
