Juventus, PSG Talks Stall Over Key Issue for Newcastle, Tottenham Transfer Target | OneFootball

Randal Kolo Muani made an instant impression after joining Juventus on loan from PSG, racking up 10 goal contributions in 19 appearances across all competitions.

PSG are hoping his solid form in Turin boosts his market value ahead of the summer transfer window. The club is looking to recover at least half of the €95 million it spent to sign him from Eintracht Frankfurt in 2023.

Kolo Muani struggled for playing time under Luis Enrique, starting only twice all season. His future may also depend on how things unfold under Juventus’ new coaching staff.

After Thiago Motta’s exit, Igor Tudor stepped in as manager. Kolo Muani had to work his way into the lineup, but saw more minutes toward the end of the 2024-25 season. As it stands, Juventus intend to keep him at least through the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport (via Le10Sport), negotiations between Juventus and PSG are ongoing as the two sides look to agree on a new one-season loan deal.

Talks have reportedly stalled over the purchase option, with PSG aiming to recoup a large part of the €95 million they spent to sign Kolo Muani from Frankfurt in 2023.

The report adds that Juventus are trying to use Kolo Muani’s clear desire to stay in Turin as leverage to convince PSG to lower their asking price.

Kolo Muani may be open to staying in Turin, but his future at Juventus likely hinges on financial and contractual decisions. Back in April, GIVEMESPORT reported that Tottenham Hotspur are ready to make another move for the French forward if Juventus choose not to make his loan permanent.

Tottenham are expected to pursue attacking reinforcements this summer, regardless of whether Ange Postecoglou stays on as manager.

Muani’s next step remains uncertain, but interest in the 26-year-old is picking up. According to TuttoJuve, Arsenal and Newcastle United are currently at the front of the pack. Whether it’s another loan or a permanent switch, his future could be one of the summer’s most talked-about storylines.
