Manchester United Locked In A Three-Way Battle For This Paris Saint-Germain Forward: Good Option For Amorim?
Kolo Muani's Impressive Loan Spell In Italian Football
Kolo Muani had a solid loan spell at Juventus last season when he put in a series of impressive displays for them in the final third. The 26-year-old scored ten goals and picked up three assists in 22 matches for the Turin club in the previous campaign across all competitions.
The France international led the line well for Juve up top as he averaged 1.94 shots per 90 minutes in Serie A football. He kept 52% of his attempts on target. Kolo Munai was a bit untidy when distributing the ball in the final third after making only 69.9% of his attempted passes in the top tier of Italian football (stats via fbref.com).
His current contract at the Ligue 1 club will expire in the summer of 2028. Thus, Man United have got no choice but to meet the French club's demands if they want to sign Kolo Muani this off-season.

Is Kolo Muani A Good Option For Manchester United Boss Ruben Amorim?
Kolo Muani is proficient at finding a yard of space for himself to get some strikes in at goal. He can be a decent finisher in the final third when he is playing with confidence on the field.
The French striker can even create the odd chance for others around him in and around the opponent's penalty area. However, he might need some time to adjust to life in the Premier League if the Red Devils can find a way to win the race for his services.
Kolo Muani would bring more goals and depth to Man United boss Ruben Amorim's frontline. He has what it takes to fight for regular first-team football at Old Trafford.
At 26, Kolo Muani has his peak years ahead of him, which makes him a great choice for the Mancunian club to consider in this transfer window. He might even help the Mancunian club get back to challenging for a European spot in the Premier League next season.

Lionel Taylor, record-setting Broncos receiver and coaching pioneer, dies at 89
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Lionel Taylor, who starred for the Denver Broncos in the 1960s and became the first wide receiver in pro football history to record a 100-catch season, has died. He was 89. His grandson, also named Lionel Taylor, told the team that Taylor died at his home near Albuquerque, New Mexico, on Aug. 6. The Broncos plan to honor Taylor during their preseason game against the Arizona Cardinals on Saturday night. Taylor was the first player in either the AFL or NFL to record 100 catches in a season and he's also believed to have been the first Black coordinator in NFL history. He served as the Los Angeles Rams' offensive coordinator from 1980-81. Taylor wasn't drafted in 1958 after starring in both basketball and football at New Mexico Highlands. After playing semipro football for a year, he joined the Chicago Bears as a linebacker in 1959 before becoming a member of the Broncos' inaugural team in 1960. He led the new American Football League in receiving in five of the league's first six seasons, including in 1961, when he had 100 catches for 1,176 yards. He spent seven seasons in Denver, becoming the franchise's career receiving leader with 543 catches for 6,872 yards and 44 touchdowns. He finished his career by playing two seasons for the Houston Oilers in 1967-68. Taylor, who was among the first players inducted into the Broncos' Ring of Fame in 1984, had an extensive coaching career after retiring as a player. He won two Super Bowl rings with the Pittsburgh Steelers in the 1970s during his seven-year stint as the team's wide receivers coach. He also served as receivers coach for the Rams from 1977-79 and as their offensive coordinator from 1980-81. According to NFL Films, he was the first Black coordinator in the league. Taylor also served as receivers coach at Oregon State from 1982-83 and as Texas Southern's head coach from 1984-88. He later worked as the Cleveland Browns' tight ends coach and as head coach of NFL Europe's London/England Monarchs. ___ AP NFL:
