Arne Slot eyes Kolo Muani as Liverpool weighs attacking rebuild

Liverpool are considering a move for Randal Kolo Muani as they plan a reshaped attack following Mohamed Salah’s exit and Hugo Ekitike’s serious Achilles injury.

Ekitike’s setback is expected to keep him out into next season, pushing the club to scan the market for a forward who can fit Arne Slot’s high-energy system.

Reports in France claim Slot is particularly interested in Kolo Muani, who is currently on loan at Tottenham from PSG. The 27-year-old has endured a difficult Premier League campaign, managing just one goal and one assist in 24 league appearances, raising doubts among some fans about whether he is the right profile to replace such a key source of goals.

Kolo Muani’s struggles in England contrast with more productive spells elsewhere. During a previous loan at Juventus, he scored 10 goals and added three assists in 22 matches, underlining the talent that first convinced PSG to invest in him.

With Liverpool needing both short-term firepower and a long-term partner for their current forwards, Slot and the club’s recruitment team must decide whether they can unlock that version of Kolo Muani at Anfield.
