The 29-year-old Zimbabwe vice-captain leaves Molineux after a difficult spell marked by limited opportunities and injury setbacks. Munetsi has featured 15 times for Wolves this season, scoring twice - once in the Premier League against Burnley and again in the Carabao Cup against Everton - but has struggled to establish himself following a calf injury that ruled him out for six weeks and cost him a place at the Africa Cup of Nations.

His move back to France reunites him with a league where he previously flourished. Munetsi rose to prominence at Stade de Reims, captaining the side and making nearly 150 Ligue 1 appearances before earning a £16 million switch to Wolves in February 2025. While his initial months in England were promising, his role diminished after a change in the technical bench.

Under former Wolves coach Vitor Pereira, Munetsi was a regular starter and played a key role in helping the club avoid relegation last season. However, following the appointment of Rob Edwards, his involvement dropped sharply, with just one start under the new manager - a 2-0 loss to Crystal Palace in November. Sources suggest Edwards felt the Zimbabwean did not suit his tactical approach, prompting approval for the loan.

Wolves, who are currently rooted to the bottom of the Premier League table and facing a potential drop, view the move as a pragmatic decision. Allowing Munetsi to gain consistent minutes in France is expected to help preserve his value ahead of a possible summer sale as the club prepares for financial restructuring should relegation occur.

Paris FC, newly promoted to Ligue 1, have been actively searching for a powerful, box-to-box midfielder to strengthen their squad. Munetsi's versatility - having played as a midfielder, centre-back and even an advanced attacker during his career at Baroka FC, Orlando Pirates, Reims and Wolves - made him an attractive option. The deal is understood to be a straight loan with no option to buy.

The transfer follows a turbulent period for Munetsi, who controversially missed Zimbabwe's Afcon campaign after disagreements over his fitness. Now back in familiar territory, the Mabvuku-born midfielder will be eager to put recent frustrations behind him and rediscover the form that once made him one of Ligue 1's most dependable performers.
