PSG Outcast Breaks Silence on Chelsea Rumors Amid Juventus Uncertainty | OneFootball

Randal Kolo Muani made an impact during his loan spell at Juventus this past season, tallying 10 goal contributions in 19 appearances across all competitions.

PSG are hoping that his strong run in Turin helps boost his market value ahead of the summer transfer window. The club is aiming to recoup at least half of the €95 million it paid to sign him from Eintracht Frankfurt in 2023.

Kolo Muani struggled for consistent minutes under Luis Enrique in Paris, starting just twice all season. His long-term future could hinge on how things develop under Juventus’ new coaching staff.

After Thiago Motta’s departure, Igor Tudor took over as manager. Kolo Muani had to earn his spot early on but saw more regular playing time as the 2024-25 campaign progressed. For now, Juventus plan to keep him through the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup.

When asked about Chelsea’s interest in an interview with Italian outlet Tuttosport (via The Independent), Kolo Muani responded:

“I don’t know anything about Chelsea, I’m trying to focus on the Club World Cup,” Kolo Muani said. “We’ll see what happens on the market at the end of the competition. If it were only up to me, I’d stay here as I’m really happy at Juventus.”

L’Equipe recently reported that Chelsea have shifted their focus to Randal Kolo Muani as they search for a versatile attacking option this summer.

The French forward is best known for playing through the middle but is also comfortable operating on either wing. Chelsea have had their eye on Kolo Muani for some time and are now in discussions with PSG about a possible transfer.

Enzo Maresca’s side won’t be alone in the race, though. Juventus, who signed Kolo Muani on loan in January, are also pushing to keep him after he impressed during the second half of the season.

In April, GIVEMESPORT reported that Tottenham Hotspur are ready to make another move for the French forward if Juventus chooses not to make his loan permanent.

Tottenham are expected to pursue attacking reinforcements this summer, regardless of whether Ange Postecoglou stayed on as manager. Kolo Muani’s next step remains uncertain, but interest in the 26-year-old is picking up.
