Spurs of north London need to make some changes, they are nowhere near they want to be – 7th in the Premier League and are part of the hardly consolating UEFA Conference League.Bayern Munich stand much better – as per usual they hold the summit of Bundesliga and are one of the biggest favourites to win this year’s Champions League.What links these two together is their interest in a young striker from Ligue 1 – Randal Kolo Muani of FC Nantes.The 22-year-old Frenchman caught the eye of many when he scored nine league goals for the Ligue 1 side last season when he played all but one game in Ligue 1. In this campaign, he netted twice and set up three goals in 10 appearances so far.Nantes’ Randal Kolo-Muani (22) really is one to watch this season – a graceful, technical, versatile forward. Here’s his cheeky finish from the weekend’s win over Angers. Özil or even Ibrahimović-esque?pic.twitter.com/Ln7ZwlFJLU— Get French Football News (@GFFN) September 21, 2021 Scouting teams of the Bavarian giants and especially Tottenham are now on the hunt for Kolo Muani. Spurs director Fabio Paratici has ‘already met the star’s entourage’ as his plan is to take advantage of the player’s contract running down at the club from the far west of France.Kolo Muani is able to speak to clubs over a pre-contract on January 1st and Foot Mercato have reported that Bayern and Tottenham are interested in bringing the player to their club as a free agent at the end of the season.Two more German clubs and another English team are lurking in the background – Borussia Monchengladbach, Eintracht Frankfurt and Southampton.Sun, 16.00: (2.50) MONTPELLIER (3.35) NANTES (3.05)Arsenal legend Thierry Henry has compared the player to his former Gunner team-mate and Nigerian legend Nwankwo Kanu.He made the comparison after a goal the forward scored for Nantes during a 4-1 victory over Angers.Kolo Muani is of Congolese descent, which could perhaps make him eligible for international selection from the Democratic Republic of Congo in future, though his recent outings as a French youth international may show where his priorities lie – he already represented France at the Tokyo Olympics. The young striker is not expected to renew his contract with the club.
