Confirmed: Randal Kolo Muani is on Liverpool's forward shortlist

Kolo Muani could stay on the continent

Of course Liverpool will be working on an extensive shortlist - with Kolo Muani being only one name among many. The expectation in the Football Insider report is that Kolo Muani will miss out on his move to Liverpool as his future lies on the continent.

“He is known to be on Liverpool’s list of potential striker additions due to the likely lower fee involved, but is not a top target and seems set to return to PSG and stay overseas rather than remain in the Premier League,” the report reads.

But this is an interesting case to follow.

Kolo Muani is a far better player than he’s shown with Spurs - rising high throughout his time at Nantes, Eintracht Frankfurt and the France national team as well as a loan spell at Juve.

Capable of playing on the right-hand side of the attack as well as centre-forward - the attacker could fill in for both the injured Ekitike as well as Mohamed Salah - who is leaving on a free.
