Randal Kolo Muani has joined Tottenham Hotspur on loan from Paris Saint-Germain.
The north London club confirmed the arrival on deadline day of the France international, who scored 10 times in 22 appearances on loan at Juventus in the second half of the 2024/25 campaign.
Kolo Muani has fallen out of favour at PSG under Luis Enrique and will now join Thomas Frank's squad, who were hampered by an ankle injury to Dominic Solanke with the striker absent in their 1-0 defeat to Bournemouth on Saturday.
"Randal is a quality player who has proven himself over a number of years, playing for big teams in the Champions League and also with good experience for the France national team," Spurs head coach Frank said.
"He's a good age, in the prime of his career, has good qualities that will suit both us and the Premier League, and gives us a different option in the final third being able to play out wide and through the middle.
"We are all excited for what Randal can add to the squad, and I'm looking forward to working with him."
The deal is reportedly a straight loan with no obligation to buy. The French striker's contract at the Parc des Princes is valid until June 2028.
PSG signed Kolo Muani for £64.2 million in 2023 from Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt. He has played 54 times for the club, recording 11 goals and seven assists, but was largely reduced to substitute appearances before moving to Juve last season.
Spurs will face Kolo Muani's parent club PSG in the UEFA Champions League in Paris on November 26.
Kolo Muani joins fellow French forward Mathys Tel at the north London club, after the 20-year-old's loan deal was made permanent this summer.

"I'm really happy and very proud to be at such a great club. I can’t wait to meet my team-mates, all the fans and to get out on the pitch," Kolo Muani told the Spurs website.
"I know what the coach expects from me. I will fight hard for the shirt, the club and the fans. I will give everything for this team."
It has been a busy summer at Spurs, having also completed the signings of Xavi Simons, Joao Palhinha, Mohammed Kudus, Kota Takai and Luka Vuskovic, alongside the change in the dugout with Frank replacing Ange Postecoglou.
Kolo Muani makes the move to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium with the club heading into the international break.
Upon the resumption of domestic action, Spurs take on West Ham United in a London derby on September 13. Following that away trip, Frank’s side welcome Spanish team Villarreal in the first match of their Champions League campaign.
