Randal Kolo Muani insisted that he remains fully behind under-pressure Tottenham boss Thomas Frank despite a poor recent run of form. 

Tottenham lost back-to-back top-flight games to Nottingham Forest and Liverpool before Christmas, with the latter result also seeing Xavi Simons and Cristian Romero sent off. 

It meant that Spurs would spend Christmas Day in 14th place in the top flight ahead of their clash with London rivals Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park this Sunday. 

Kolo Muani, who is on loan with Frank's team from Paris Saint-Germain, endured a difficult start to his loan spell after missing five games in all competitions with a muscle injury. 

However, the France international has since started 10 of his 16 appearances for the club, registering two goals and two assists in those outings for Tottenham. 

But despite fan unrest about Frank's tenure and the style of play the former Brentford boss has implemented, Kolo Muani pledged his support for the Dane. 

"Yeah, we have a good relation[ship]," Kolo Muani said. "We talk together so much, and he has good coaches, so I am happy with him.

"All the team, my teammates, have trust in the coach and everybody is happy with him. Now we work a lot to go hard [for this period]."

Kolo Muani knows only good performances and goals for Spurs will help him reach France's World Cup squad ahead of FIFA's flagship tournament starting next summer. 

The 27-year-old featured for Les Bleus in Qatar in 2022, most notably missing a glorious chance in the extra-time of the final that Argentina went on to win on penalties. 

After moving to PSG following the tournament, a lack of game time saw him drop out of international contention, though he has since been recalled to the squad. 

But when asked about his motivation to compete at the World Cup next year, Kolo Muani insisted that his full focus remained on helping Spurs improve their current form. 

"I feel very good and my team-mates are good with me," Kolo Muani said. "For the moment, I just want to play really good at the club.

"This is really important, and after we will see for the World Cup. That is why I need and want to show more my quality and want to score also.

"We need to win more games and if I want to go to the World Cup, I need to do some [more] good performances."
