Arsenal step up talks to sign £64m World Cup winning striker from PSG with Man United also keen

• EXCLUSIVE from Graeme Bailey

Both Arsenal and Manchester United may be tempted to dip their toes into the January transfer market in order to strengthen their respective projects.

On Mikel Arteta’s end, Arsenal are performing to an excellent level defensively, b🌌ut many in north London still feel as if there’s something missing up top.

Ruben Amorim’s Man United project is at a very different stage, but one 🔯or two fresh faces in January may help to achieve the club’s immediate objectiv𓆉es this season.

That being said, TBR Football understands that a number of Premier League clubs have now stepped up talks over the possibility of signing Paris Saint-Germain striker, Randal Kolo Muani.

Arsenal and Man United both interested in Randal Kolo Muani loan deal

Kolo Muani was offered to English clubs by intermediaries in October and interest has 💃firmed up in the last few days.

The PSG striker had held out hope of playing his way back into Luis Enrique’s plans, however, the return of Goncalo Ramos to f🌊ull fitness has pushed Kolo Muani further down the pecking or🧔der in France.

As a result, Arsenal, Man United and Manchester City have all expressed an interest in taking the Frenc♕h star in January, as all three look to enhance their attacking options.

On their part, PSG are willing to sanction a loan move with an option to buy in the futurﷺe.

Fortunately for interested clubs from the Premier League🐭, a move to England is believed to hugely appeal to Kolo Muani.

Man City also think Randal Kolo Muani could ease Pep Guardiola’s problems

Arsenal are looking for extra options in the final third right now and the idea of landing Kolo Muani on loan i🌜n January does appeal to the club.

Similarly, Man City feel as if the st🔯riker would enhance the options available to Pep Guardiola right now.

United also feel as if they could strengthen Amorim’s options and the chance to loan Kolo Muani apౠpeals to the club given the constraints they are🉐 experiencing with PSR.

United have made most of their squad available in Jan🧸uary, but moving players on is far from easy right now.

Sources at Old Trafford also insist that any int🐼erest in Kolo Muani is unrelated to recent events with Marcus Rashford and Alejan🤪dro Garnacho.

Both were left out of the squad to face City on Sunday following issues with how they have been training♛.
