What happened
Randal Kolo Muani, who impressed during a loan spell at Juventus, is nearing a return to Turin. PSG have reportedly admitted they are open to offloading the French striker, having struggled to integrate him into their squad. Juventus are keen to make the deal permanent, though financial terms are still being discussed. The move would reunite Kolo Muani with manager Thiago Motta, under whom he flourished in the second half of the season.
Chance analysis
Kolo Muani's permanent move to Juventus would solidify their attacking options after a productive loan spell where he rediscovered his form. PSG appear ready to cut their losses on a player signed for significant fees but never established in Paris. For Juventus, this is a low-risk, high-reward acquisition given his prior Serie A output and tactical fit under Motta. The deal's structure (loan-to-buy, fee, wages) will determine how much of their transfer budget remains available for other targets.
Positive for Juventus' attacking depth; likely a modest but meaningful upgrade, while PSG free up wages and squad space.
A confirmed Kolo Muani-to-Juventus deal would strengthen Juventus' attack for the 2025-26 Serie A season, improving their goal-scoring reliability.
