PSG transfer saga, Kolo Muani twists again

Randal Kolo Muani, the 27-year-old France international striker who was struggling at Paris Saint-Germain (under contract until 2028), has been loaned to Tottenham for the 2025-2026 season without a purchase option, after an agreement with Juventus (where he was on loan from January to June 2026) could not be reached. His future is now uncertain. The deal between PSG and the Italian club remains very complicated. Tuttosport and Corriere dello Sport reported this Sunday that Juve are exploring another option.

Tuttosport:

The French striker has passed Juventus’ offer on to his club, but Turin does not intend to go as far as an offer of at least 40 million euros. That threshold, with no room above it, could be reached through variable elements, such as bonuses linked to qualification for the next Champions League. The two clubs are also discussing certain details, but the problem lies in their differing views on the amount of the deal. Luis Campos, confident in his ability to sell Kolo Muani, is demanding at least 45 million euros. Borussia Dortmund, for example, are closely interested in the striker born in 1998, who is returning from an unsuccessful loan spell at Tottenham.

Corriere dello Sport:

“It’s not just a matter of priorities. At this stage of the transfer window, Continassa is also studying other opportunities, among which the name of Brazilian Richarlison stands out. Juve are continuing their talks with Kolo Muani, who remains determined to return to Italy to wear the bianconero shirt. Financially, the gap remains between the offer and the asking price of 50 million euros, but rumors speak of a slight increase, particularly regarding bonuses and the sell-on percentage.

For more than a year, twists and turns have been nonstop in this case. It leaves people torn between ridicule, weariness, and concern. A few days ago, the Italian press was talking about a final Juventus offer that was supposed to help secure an agreement with PSG. Now, the gap is too wide and another option is being explored. »

These are claims we have already seen recently, with slightly different figures and names (such as Alexander Sorloth). All of it without anything concrete, not the slightest confirmation. Apart from the fact that Juventus did make it clear at the start of the transfer window that there is genuine interest and that discussions are being attempted. Since then, nothing—no sign of optimism or of a definitive breakdown. Exactly like the summer 2025 transfer window.

So above all, we would like the media to remain calm and wait for real developments, rather than fueling a soap opera around little or nothing. There also needs to be a clear position from Juventus and PSG. If a deal is impossible, then it is time to move on. Especially on the Italian club’s side, which surely can find another striker it likes.

As for Paris and Kolo Muani, there would need to be another offer. There have been a few rumors, but nothing certain. That is where there may be cause for concern, with a player who could end up somewhat stuck. Even if we are not there yet. We saw last summer that a solution can emerge quickly.
