Juventus transfer news: New bid for Kolo Muani stalls

Juventus transfer news takes centre stage as the Turin giants ready a renewed offer for Randal Kolo Muani, but Paris Saint-Germain remain unmoved by anything short of a permanent sale.

Juventus transfer news drives summer strategy

Sporting director Cristiano Giuntoli is reportedly piecing together a package built around an initial loan with a mandatory purchase clause in 2025. The formula would allow Juve to balance Financial Fair Play requirements while still securing the France striker they believe can rejuvenate Max Allegri’s attack.

PSG dig in over valuation

PSG, however, are insisting on a straight sale worth at least €60 million after Kolo Muani’s mixed first season in Ligue 1. Club sources in Paris maintain that a loan—mandatory clause or not—doesn’t satisfy their need to reinvest quickly in midfield reinforcements.

Kolo Muani eager for Serie A switch

The 25-year-old has privately expressed a desire to test himself in Italy, where he would likely slot in alongside Dusan Vlahovic or even replace the Serbian should Juve accept offers for him. Personal terms are not expected to be an obstacle; the player’s camp already has a broad agreement in place worth around €5 million per season.

Clock ticking toward pre-season

Allegri wants his forward line settled before the squad reports to Continassa in July. If the impasse drags on, Juve could pivot to lower-cost alternatives such as Bologna’s Joshua Zirkzee or Atalanta’s Ademola Lookman, though neither offers the same blend of pace and power as Kolo Muani.

Opinion: Stick or twist?

Another stalemate would undermine a summer that began with optimism. Juve should stretch—but not break—their budget; overpaying now could hinder wider squad upgrades, yet walking away might leave Allegri short of goals once again.
