Randal Kolo Muani, the 26-year-old French national team striker who was struggling at Paris Saint-Germain, has been loaned 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 still not materialized and the suspense is mounting, with even a new outcome. TuttoMercatoWeb insists that Manchester United could well change the situation, as we have seen in recent hours.
Kolo Muani to Manchester United and Hojlund to Juventus?
“The Red Devils are looking for a player to bolster their attack and, should they make progress with the relative white smoke for Kolo Muani, they would be more open to the transfer of Rasmus Hojlund, precisely another Juventus target for Igor Tudor’s attack.
The parties are discussing this as part of the Jadon Sancho operation, which is in any case detached and living its own life. But the idea is there, and could indeed materialize if United were to “blow” Kolo Muani to Juventus.
For the Frenchman’s transfer, PSG are still asking for €40 million in cash, while Juventus are firm on the proposal of a loan with right of repurchase at a lower amount. This is why United’s inclusion is to be strongly considered.”
We remain cautious, as there has been no concrete confirmation whatsoever. But, little by little, this possible transfer to the Premier League rather than Juventus no longer seems like just a little “diversion” or rumour to wait for the signing in Italy. The latter is becoming increasingly uncertain, and another scenario is well and truly in the offing.
The English league may well appeal to the French international, and there are the financial resources to satisfy PSG’s demands. The outcome of the Kolo Muani dossier is still far from certain. The soap opera could yet drag on.
