Juventus Face €70M Decision to Secure PSG Outcast for FIFA Club World Cup | OneFootball

Juventus secured Randal Kolo Muani on loan until the end of the season during the winter transfer window, and the French forward has wasted no time making an impact, scoring five goals in his first three matches.

Though Tottenham showed interest, Kolo Muani opted for a move to Juventus, seeking a fresh start after a tough 18 months at PSG.

The striker, who was signed for €95 million from Eintracht Frankfurt in the summer of 2023, had only managed 11 goals in 54 appearances. This season, he found himself sidelined under Luis Enrique, starting just twice across all competitions.

Now, the big question is whether Juventus can keep him beyond his initial loan.

Corriere dello Sport and TuttoSport reports that Juventus are looking to sign Kolo Muani on a permanent deal, with PSG setting the asking price at €70 million.

The player wants to stay in Italy, and both clubs are currently in talks to finalize the transfer. Juventus are also eager for him to represent them in the upcoming FIFA Club World Cup this summer.

Recently, Juventus manager Thiago Motta was complimentary and cautious when talking about Kolo Muani’s performance after the PSG loanee scored five goals in three Serie A matches.

“Kolo Muani is doing well and scoring goals,” Motta said. “He can do better. He’s just arrived and needs to keep his feet on the ground. Goals are part of the game. I like seeing him like this, with a smile. He’s integrated very well and is helping like everyone else.”
