Paris Saint-Germain striker Randal Kolo Muani has rejected interest from Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur in favour of a loan move to Juventus, reports have revealed.
Kolo Muani lost his place under PSG manager Luis Enrique towards the end of the calendar year and was made available for loan, with his status attracting interest from a number of sides keen to bolster in attack.
United and Tottenham both enquired about Kolo Muani, but Juventus emerged as favourites for his signature last week and La Gazzetta dello Sport now claim a deal has been struck.
Kolo Muani is due in Italy in the coming days to undergo a medical ahead of putting pen to paper on a simple loan deal which will not include a purchase clause.
Juventus' imminent acquisition of Kolo Muani will bring an end to their pursuit of United forward Joshua Zirkzee, who they wanted to reunite with former Bologna boss Thiago Motta before realising a deal would be too complicated.
PSG's decision to give the final green light to Kolo Muani's exit comes after they struck a €70m deal to sign winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia from Napoli.
