Tottenham Hotspur forward Randal Kolo Muani is counting his lucky stars tonight after walking away unscathed from a terrifying high-speed crash on the M25 motorway. The French international’s Ferrari Purosangue was left mangled on the hard shoulder after a tyre blowout sent the supercar careening out of control just hours before a crucial Champions League flight.

The incident, which brought traffic to a standstill near the Hertfordshire junction, could have been a tragedy for the North London club.Kolo Muani was en route to Stansted Airport to join his teammates for their clash against Eintracht Frankfurt when the accident occurred. In a twist of fate, his teammate Wilson Odobert was driving directly behind him and witnessed the entire heart-stopping sequence, immediately pulling over to pull his friend from the wreckage.

A Miracle on the Motorway

Images circulating on social media show the black Ferrari with its front-right wheel completely obliterated and the wheel arch torn to shreds, a testament to the violence of the blowout. "It was a tyre blowing up," confirmed a shaken but relieved Spurs manager Thomas Frank during his press conference in Germany. "They are a bit delayed, but they are fine. It is a minor miracle."

The crash compounds a miserable week for Spurs, who are already grappling with an injury crisis that has sidelined 11 first-team players. The psychological toll of the near-death experience on Kolo Muani, who has struggled for form since his loan move from PSG, remains to be seen.

• The Odobert Factor: Wilson Odobert's quick thinking to secure the scene likely prevented further collisions. The bond between the two Frenchmen will surely be cemented by this shared trauma.
• The Injury Curse: With Pedro Porro and Micky van de Ven already out, losing Kolo Muani to a car crash would have been the final nail in Spurs' European campaign. His availability for tomorrow's game is a testament to the safety engineering of modern supercars.

Back to Business

Despite the shock, both players are expected to take a private jet later tonight to link up with the squad. For Kolo Muani, the match against his former Bundesliga rivals Frankfurt now carries a heavier weight—a celebration of life after staring down mortality on a rain-slicked English motorway.
