Tottenham Striker Kolo Muani Sidelined with Jaw Injury, Faces Uncertain Future

On November 10, 2025, Tottenham Hotspur striker Randal Kolo Muani sustained a jaw injury during Tottenham's 2-2 draw against Manchester United on November 5. Kolo Muani collided with Harry Maguire in the first half and was substituted at halftime, being replaced by Wilson Odobert.

The 26-year-old striker, who joined Tottenham on loan from Paris Saint-Germain in the summer, had been called up to the France national team for the first time since June. However, he has now withdrawn from the France squad due to the injury.

Tottenham's injury woes have deepened, as they are now without two of their senior strikers. Dominic Solanke, Tottenham's club-record signing, has been sidelined with an ankle issue and has only played three games this season. Richarlison and Mathys Tel are now the only recognized central striking options for Tottenham, who face a crucial north London derby against Arsenal on November 23.

Kolo Muani's injury is the latest in a series of setbacks for Tottenham, who have also been without James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski, and Radu Dragusin due to long-term injuries. Yves Bissouma, Ben Davies, and Kota Takai are yet to play this season, while Archie Gray, Lucas Bergvall, and Mohammed Kudus missed the Manchester United game.

Tottenham will be hoping Kolo Muani's injury is not too serious, as they face a crucial run of fixtures after the international break, including the north London derby and a Champions League match against Paris Saint-Germain.
