Juventus are intensifying their efforts to secure Randal Kolo Muani from Paris Saint-Germain, even after finalizing the signing of Jonathan David. IlBianconero report that the Turin club remains focused on reinforcing its attacking options, especially as the relationship with Dusan Vlahovic appears irreparably damaged and Victor Osimhen is reportedly close to a move elsewhere.
Current Situation
After Kolo Muani’s loan spell in Turin, Juventus are determined not to lose the French striker. The club’s new general manager, Damien Comolli, is leading negotiations, aiming to keep Kolo Muani despite his official return to PSG following Juventus’ exit from the FIFA Club World Cup. Juventus is preparing a new, improved offer to convince PSG to extend the striker’s stay.
Negotiation Details
Previously, PSG rejected the idea of another loan without a mandatory purchase clause, insisting on a guarantee that Juventus would buy Kolo Muani outright—reportedly for around €40 million in 2026. Juventus, however, prefers a formula that gives them the option rather than the obligation to buy.
To bridge this gap, Gazzetta report that Juventus are now ready to propose a paid loan deal worth approximately €10 million, with a buyout clause that would become mandatory under easily achievable conditions. This structure signals Juventus’ clear intention to make the transfer permanent, but allows them to delay the full investment.
PSG’s Stance
PSG remain firm in its demand for a significant transfer fee, having paid €95 million for Kolo Muani just two years ago. The French club is reluctant to accept another simple loan or a low-cost option to buy, preferring a guaranteed sale or a loan with an obligation to purchase. Juventus’ new offer attempts to meet PSG halfway by increasing the loan fee and making the buyout clause more likely to be triggered.
Kolo Muani’s Position
Kolo Muani is reportedly open to staying in Turin, having enjoyed his initial months at Juventus and believing the club is the right place for his career progression. The striker’s future now hinges on whether the two clubs can resolve their differences over the transfer formula.
