Transfers
David Ornstein says £77m player could leave in January after Arsenal links
We’re just a couple of weeks away from the January transfer window, and the rumour mill is starting to turn again.
Indeed, silly season is almost upon us, and theꦜre are plenty of players who will be looking for a move💟 next month.
Marcus Rashford is ready for a new challenge, while Alexander Isak may be available in January.
Randal Kolo Muani may also be available in January, and, as of late, Arsenal have been linked with Kolo Muani.
Speaking on The Athletic FC Podcast, David Ornstein has been discussing Kolo Muani’s situation, and he’s led to believe that the Frenchman could well be on the move next month. Although, he’s not aware that any discussions 🐬with Arsenal have taken place just yet.

Randal Kolo Muani likely to leave
Ornstein spoke about Kolo Muani’s situation, claiming that he has a very good c൲hance of moving next 🀅month.
Ornstein says that Arsenal c🦋ould be potential suitors but no talks have taken place yet to his🅰 knowledge.
“In the case of Arsenal. They have considered him among their longlist in the past. I’m not saying he was down to shortlists, but he was discussed as were many other name🥀s before he went to PSG.
“I don’t know of any pursuit on this occasion, but you never know, January is largely a reactive market, and if a low-cost loan for six months arises and a club such as Arsenal feel they have th🎉e space and the need then let’s have a conversation about this.
“That hasn’t happen𓆉ed with Arsenal to my knowledge, but I do think he stands a very good chance of movinꦯg.”
Randall Kolo Muani stats this season
Arsenal do need a new aꦏttacker🎃, that much is clear.
Jamie Carragher says Arsenal need to upgrade their frontline, but whether or notꦜ Kolo Muani is the man to do that is up for debate.
Kolo Muani was hot property a few years ago, hence why PSG paid to sign him from Eintracht ꦑFrankfurt.
Ho🦩weve🎃r, since landing in Paris, Kolo Muani really hasn’t lived up to expectations.

Kolo Muani’s stats in Ligue 1 are uninspiring to say the least, and, with al🦩l due respect, Ligue 1 isn’t ♔the toughest league in the world.
Arsenal fans will appreciate t𒁃hat Ligue 1 goals can be easy to come by as their formeꦦr player, Alexandre Lacazette, is seriously outperforming Kolo Muani at the moment.

Arsenal need to freshen up their attack, but signing a striker who is scoring fewer goals than Lacazette surely isn’t the answer to the💯 Gunners’ attacking problems.
