This time, it’s the right one for Randal Kolo Muani. After weeks, even months of negotiations, PSG and Juventus are on the verge of finding a loan agreement with a compulsory purchase option for the striker. According to information from RMC and of Parisian that we are able to confirm, the Frenchman is expected in Turin in the coming hours to undergo his medical examination. It is the epilogue of a very long series which would bring in around €45 million for the capital club.
For many weeks, the two clubs negotiated a new loan for the international (32 caps, 9 goals), absent from the last World Cup. PSG had set the bar high to lose as little as possible on its XXL investment in the summer of 2023. Kolo Muani had been recruited from Eintracht Frankfurt after a long standoff with the German club for €95 million. The transfer was completed in the last hours of the transfer window. Despite all these efforts, it turned out to be a failure.
Only Juve succeeded
The former Nantes man never really established himself in the mind of Luis Enrique. In competition with Gonçalo Ramos, a completely different center-forward profile, to be Kylian Mbappé’s replacement at the time, he mostly blew hot and cold (54 matches in all competitions, 11 goals and 7 assists), before being pushed towards the exit. This is where RKM was loaned for the first time to the Old Lady in January 2025 for six less convincing ones (10 goals and 3 assists in 22 games).
The Bianconeri were unable to find the financial resources to extend the adventure of the native of Bondy, despite numerous attempts, sometimes even desperate and lost in advance. The player finally left, still in the form of a loan, to Tottenham where the sauce never took off (41 TCC matches, 5 goals and 4 assists). In his defense, Spurs experienced a nightmare season last year, saved from relegation at the last minute. This time, Kolo Muani finds an environment committed to his cause, he whose contract at PSG still ends in 2028.
