Fabrizio Romano reveals Tottenham have taken a big step in Randal Kolo Muani deal

Transfer deadline day has just heated up for Tottenham Hotspur fans, with Fabrizio Romano revealing that Spurs have taken a big step towards landing Randal Kolo Muani.

It seemed like Spurs fans were in for a quiet deadline day, but things are now heating up, with the Lilywhites making efforts to pull off a surprise signing.

Earlier today, it emerged that Tottenham had launched an enquiry for Randal Kolo Muani, a player they also chased back in the winter.

However, that particular update suggested that the Frenchman was still in talks with Juventus, but now, it seems that Spurs are making efforts to beat the Serie A side to the Paris Saint-Germain star.

Tottenham are close to agreeing personal terms with Randal Kolo Muani

This update comes from Fabrizio Romano, who has taken to social media to reveal that Tottenham are taking big steps towards landing the 26-year-old this summer.

The journalist says that the North London club are now on the verge of agreeing personal terms with Kolo Muani.

He also adds that Spurs are speaking to PSG regarding an initial loan deal with the obligation to buy the forward.

Has Tottenham’s injury blow triggered the news?

It was initially reported that Tottenham were keen on adding a winger to their squad, and Spurs head coach Thomas Frank even said that he is happy with the two strikers at his disposal.

While Kolo Muani can play across the front three, he is more of a centre-forward than a winger.

Perhaps Tottenham’s move for the France international has been triggered by the news that Dominic Solanke could face a significant spell on the sidelines.
