Soon the epilogue? For Randal Kolo Muani, the adventure at PSG will remain a disappointing chapter. Arrived in 2023 from Eintracht Frankfurt with great ambitions, the French striker has never justified his transfer of 90 million euros. Last winter, he was loaned to Juventus, where he found his level and his sensations.

This Sunday, Igor Tudor hopes to be able to count on the 26 -year -old player for the first day of Serie A Facing Parma. The Croatian technician remains in uncertainty, waiting to know if his number 9 will finally be available. For several weeks, PSG and Juventus have been negotiating to finalize the transfer, with some persistent disagreements on the formula of the contract.

For a long time, the old lady wanted only one loan with option to buy, while PSG claimed an obligation to buy. According to La Gazzetta dello Sportthe financial agreement would now be reached: the loan would cost 10 million euros, followed by an obligation to purchase 40 million, a total of around 50 million euros.

The last obstacle before transfer

A final obstacle remains, however. Juventus must sell a player before being able to formalize Kolo Muani. The new managing director, Damien Comolli, seeks to transfer Douglas Luiz to Nottingham Forest for nearly 40 million euros. Some details remain to be paid before the transaction is completed.

In the meantime, the patient international, aware that his arrival in Serie A depends on this preliminary sale. As Fabrizio Romano reported this Wednesday, Kolo Muani is convinced that he will soon join Juventus and simply expect the final agreement with PSG to be sealed.
