Randal Kolo Muani’s Juventus Stay Hangs in the Balance
French striker Randal Kolo Muani, currently on loan from Paris Saint-Germain, faces an uncertain future at Juventus. The 26-year-old’s impressive start in Turin has been overshadowed by recent developments, including a change in management.
Initially brought in under Thiago Motta’s tenure, Kolo Muani made an immediate impact, scoring five goals in his first three appearances. However, his form dipped along with the team’s performance, leading to Motta’s dismissal.
The arrival of Igor Tudor as head coach has further complicated Kolo Muani’s situation. Since Tudor’s appointment, the French forward has seen limited playing time, featuring for only 45 minutes across three matches.
Despite the absence of a purchase option in the original loan agreement, there remains a possibility for Kolo Muani to extend his stay in Turin. This scenario, however, likely depends on Tudor’s departure, which remains a possibility even if Juventus secures Champions League qualification.
Juventus’ sporting director, Cristiano Giuntoli, is reportedly exploring managerial options. Should favorable conditions arise, the Italian club may propose another loan deal for Kolo Muani, potentially including a mandatory purchase clause effective in 2026.
Regardless of the outcome at Juventus, it appears that Kolo Muani’s future does not lie with Paris Saint-Germain. The coming weeks will be crucial in determining the next step in the French striker’s career.
