Thomas Frank\u2019s luck appears to have taken another hit following the latest update on Randal Kolo Muani.<\/p>\n
Tottenham are already without Dominic Solanke, James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski, meaning any additional injuries come at the worst possible moment for the under-pressure manager. Even with a long list of absentees, Spurs still managed a 2-0 victory over Brentford on Saturday, 6 December, thanks to first-half goals from Richarlison and Xavi Simons.<\/p>\n
Brentford offered little threat at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, and the same was true of Kolo Muani, who played 74 minutes before being replaced by Wilson Odobert. It was clear he had picked up a minor knock, and fresh updates have only deepened concerns.<\/p>\n
While waiting outside the stadium, journalist Ryan Taylor wrote on X (6 December): \u201cRandal Kolo Muani has just limped through the mixed zone. The Frenchman was also moving gingerly just before he was subbed. Slight concern for Spurs given how excellent he has been in recent weeks.\u201d<\/p>\n
Supporters have enjoyed the 27-year-old\u2019s impact\u2014especially his standout display against PSG last month\u2014but his loan spell has hit another obstacle. He has started Tottenham\u2019s last four matches in all competitions, yet he may now miss the upcoming Champions League tie against Slavia Prague.<\/p>\n
There may be a small consolation for fans: Kolo Muani has had a largely clean injury record before arriving in North London. His only significant setback was an 11-game absence with a muscle issue earlier this season, and he only returned to action last month.<\/p>\n
Since then, he has become a key part of Frank\u2019s setup, which could influence his long-term future, given he is on loan from PSG. Meanwhile, Football Insider reports that Spurs are eyeing Igor Thiago\u2014a striker who failed to score at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday but has impressed throughout the season.<\/p>\n
Tottenham are still searching for a reliable centre-forward after Harry Kane\u2019s departure, and that quest continues despite Kolo Muani\u2019s promising but inconsistent contributions this term.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
