Randal Kolo Muani does not want to make his return to the French team an obsession. Arriving at Juventus this summer from PSG, the French striker first prefers to find his best level with his new club. Questioned by the Corriere della Sera on the possibility that Juve would allow him to find the Blues, he was very measured. “ Honestly, I’m not thinking about it at the moment. I am focusing on this season, on my progress and on my performances with Juventus. If France selects me, I will be delighted, otherwise I will continue to work hard “, he confided. Present in the French group during the friendly matches last March, Kolo Muani was ultimately not selected for the 2026 World Cup.

International since September 2022 and a first appearance during the victory against Austria (2-0), the striker today has 32 caps for nine goals. Long appreciated and regularly summoned by Didier Deschamps, Kolo Muani must now convince Zinédine Zidane to give him another chance. His debut with Juventus remains quite discreet for the moment: starting in the first two matches and present during all the matches, he has not yet been decisive in any of the goals scored by his team. It is now up to him to continue his performances in Italy to gradually regain his place in the selection.
