Shocking news has emerged from Tottenham Hotspur, as French striker Randal Kolo Muani was involved in a serious car accident on the M25 motorway. The incident occurred just before the team was scheduled to fly to Germany for a crucial Europa League clash against Eintracht Frankfurt.
Kolo Muani was reportedly driving his black Ferrari when a sudden tyre blowout caused him to lose control. The car suffered catastrophic damage, particularly to the front right wheel and wheel arch, leaving the vehicle mangled. Images of the wrecked Ferrari quickly circulated across social media, highlighting the severity of the crash.
Fortunately, teammate Wilson Odobert was traveling directly behind him and was able to pull over immediately to ensure Kolo Muani’s safety.
Harrowing Moments on the M25
According to reports, the accident occurred when the Ferrari’s tyre exploded at high speed along the fast lane in Hertfordshire. The force of the blowout caused extensive damage to the front grill, wheel arch, and even cracked the windshield.
Odobert, acting quickly, provided immediate assistance to his fellow player. Both players had been en route to Stansted Airport, where they were scheduled to join the squad for the must-win game against Eintracht Frankfurt.
Eyewitness accounts describe a tense scene, with the car skidding dangerously before coming to a stop. Thanks to Odobert’s swift response, Kolo Muani emerged unharmed, avoiding what could have been a potentially tragic accident.
Tottenham Boss Thomas Frank Confirms Players Are Safe
Tottenham manager Thomas Frank addressed the media following the incident to calm fears among fans. He confirmed that neither Kolo Muani nor Odobert suffered serious injuries, describing the event as a purely technical issue with the vehicle.
“Kolo Muani and Wilson Odobert are both fine,” Frank stated during a press conference.
“They were involved in a minor accident caused by a tyre blowout. That’s all there is to it,” he added.
Despite the terrifying moment, the players’ schedules were only slightly delayed, and they remain fit to travel with the team to Germany.
Ready for the Frankfurt Clash
Even after narrowly avoiding a serious accident, Kolo Muani is expected to line up for Tottenham in the high-stakes game against Eintracht Frankfurt. Frank emphasized the importance of having his striker available, as Spurs aim to secure a victory for automatic progression to the knockout stage.
“They’re slightly delayed, but they will join us tonight,” Frank confirmed with optimism.
“I fully expect them to be available for selection,” he added, highlighting the striker’s readiness to play.
This accident serves as a dramatic reminder of the unpredictability off the pitch, but it seems Tottenham can breathe a sigh of relief knowing that one of their key players is safe and ready for action.
