Randal Kolo Muani, the 26-year-old French national team striker who was struggling at Paris Saint-Germain, has been loaned out to Juventus Turin until the end of the 2024-2025 season without an option to buy. He initially bounced back well, and the Turin club announced its intention to keep him. However, this has yet to materialize, and we are awaiting an official announcement. The Italian press is talking about a very important meeting to come, while other clubs are interested.
La Stampa :
“La Stampa takes stock of Kolo Muani’s future:
Now that the Club World Cup is over, Juventus can accelerate. The overall valuation is 50 million euros.
The European champions, buoyed by the interest of English clubs, have remained firm in their stance: a sale or a loan with a compulsory purchase option.
For the time being, Juve prefer an expensive 10 million euro loan with a 40 million euro purchase option.
A meeting is scheduled for this week, at which Juventus will provide the necessary guarantees to PSG.”
CalcioMercato :
“According to CalcioMercato , Kolo Muani has been offered to Inter Milan and Chelsea. Inter have expressed an interest. Juve are still interested in signing the French international, but are proposing a costly loan of 10 million euros, with no compulsory purchase option. Meeting this week.”
We remain cautious, as there’s nothing concrete here and we know that these famous meetings don’t always take place on the day announced. However, sometimes they do, and this can lead to a decisive breakthrough. Or an even stronger blockage.
This could lead Kolo Muani to other clubs, even if nothing is done. Not to mention the possibility that rumours of other major interests could be a means of pressure from the striker or PSG.
It’s difficult to see things clearly today, but we can only hope that Juventus and PSG will finally come to an agreement soon. It was a case that we thought would go relatively quickly this summer.
