Juventus has reportedly set August 13 as the deadline to complete the transfer of Randal Kolo Muani from Paris Saint-Germain. The Italian club is eager to have the French striker in Turin before their pre-season friendly against the Juventus Next Gen team at the Allianz Stadium.
The friendly match, scheduled for August 13, will be attended by key figures from Juventus` senior management, including John Elkann. This event appears to be driving the club`s urgency to finalize the deal.
Transfer Negotiations
Juventus remains optimistic about securing Kolo Muani`s services on a permanent basis following his successful loan spell earlier in 2025, during which he scored eight goals in 16 Serie A appearances. However, PSG, who initially invested €75 million in the player two years ago, is reportedly seeking €50 million for the transfer.
In response, Juventus is prepared to offer a total package of €45 million. The proposed deal structure includes a €10 million loan fee for the upcoming season, with an option to buy for an additional €35 million. This option would likely become an obligation based on easily achievable conditions.
Impact on Juventus
Kolo Muani`s potential arrival could significantly bolster Juventus` attacking options for the upcoming season. The club`s management appears keen to have the player integrated into the squad as soon as possible, highlighting the importance they place on this transfer.
As negotiations continue, all eyes will be on whether Juventus can meet their self-imposed deadline and secure Kolo Muani`s services before the August 13 friendly match.
