Kolo Muani nears Spurs league debut after dead leg

Randal Kolo Muani (Tottenham Hotspur)
October 2025

Cleared to contend for minutes versus Aston Villa, Kolo Muani returns from a mid-September dead leg. With Solanke also recovering, Richarlison’s load finally eases as Spurs regain a direct runner to stretch back lines. Expect a measured ramp targeting late-game impact. Early patterns should emphasise transition lanes and near-post runs, with staff monitoring work rate and contact tolerance before pushing starts. Competition up front resets roles and minutes.
