Randal Kolo Muani, the 27-year-old France forward currently under contract with Paris Saint-Germain until 2028, is looking to revitalize his career. A move to Juventus is frequently discussed, though negotiations are proving very difficult. La Gazzetta dello Sport confirms the wave of optimism emerging from Italy in recent hours.
“a breakthrough regarding Kolo could happen at any moment”
Recent talks with the Parisians have been positive. Carnevali is negotiating tenaciously to secure the green light, ideally within the first few days of the week. In theory, a breakthrough regarding Kolo could happen at any moment—possibly even within the next few hours.
“A gap remains”
President Al-Khelaifi has appreciated Carnevali’s diplomatic efforts; he has been working for weeks to mend relations between the two clubs. It will soon become clear whether this will be enough. PSG values Kolo Muani at €50 million, while Juventus has gone as high as €40 million—including bonuses—via a conditional loan deal: a small sum upfront and the remainder next summer, contingent on European qualification.
A gap remains, yet there appears to be a mutual willingness to find common ground. The call from France that could spark a turning point in the Bianconeri’s transfer market activity might come within the next 24 to 48 hours.
Given that this saga has dragged on for over a year, a degree of caution is inevitable. We have too often seen reports—particularly in the Italian media—suggesting an imminent deal, only for things to suddenly go cold. Indeed, the sports newspaper itself notes that an agreement still needs to be reached. While a compromise seems possible, nothing is guaranteed.
Perhaps Kolo Muani, PSG, and Juventus will finally bring these long-running negotiations to a close. However, a new impasse remains a possibility. Let’s wait and see what happens next.
