The last hours of the transfer window sometimes reserve unpleasant surprises. Starting at Juventus Turin for a loan season, Randal Kolo Muani is back at Paris Saint-Germain time to agree with his next club. Author of 8 achievements and a decisive pass in 16 Serie A games, he had satisfied the Bianconera management for his six months spent in Turin. Everything was going in the direction of a new start to the old lady for the French international before the end of this summer transfer window.

In recent days, the Italian press said that the ex-player of FC Nantes and Frankfurt had reached an agreement with the Piedmontese club around a five-season contract. The Parisian club and Juventus then worked for a loan, with compulsory purchase option. But the transfer was late because the old lady could not afford the finalist of the 2022 World Cup and had to review her plans. The idea of ​​a loan with a non-compulsory purchase option had been issued, while an amount of around 50 million euros had been mentioned for it.

The deal did not please PSG

“We had some discussions with PSG, but it did not go further. I don't know how it will end. We have to pay attention to the financial fair play in UEFA. The slightest euro counts. We already have two very good attackers with Dušan Vlahović who will stay with us and Jonathan David. With these two, we are very happy with what we have ”had already explained the boss of Juve, Damien Comolli. And the latest information from RMC Sport go in this direction, since Randal Kolo Muani will not sign on Juve.

Indeed, the many changes of Juve in the structuring of the deal have forced Paris Saint-Germain to withdraw from negotiations with the Italian club. A blow for the 26-year-old scorer, who wanted to stay with the bianconeri on the long term. The last hours of the transfer window will be decisive for Paris Saint-Germain and Randal Kolo Muani, who still does not enter into the plans of Luis Enrique, despite a contract until 2028. It will be necessary to convince another club to afford it, unless a reversal with Juventus, before Monday evening, 8 p.m.
