While PSG is negotiating with Naples for its winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, the Parisian club is also discussing in parallel with Juventus Turin for Randal Kolo Muani, Thiago Motta’s offensive priority according to the Italian press.
Unable to count on Arkadiusz Milik to compete with Dusan Vlahovic, Juventus Turin is looking for a new striker during this winter transfer window and is mainly targeting three players: Randal First Class (PSG), Joshua Zirkzee (Manchester United), that Thiago Motta knew in Bologna, and Niclas filling jug (West Ham). According to the latest reports from the Italian press, Kolo Muani is the Old Lady’s priority to strengthen its attack.
In today’s edition, the Turin general daily La Stampa reports new contacts between Juventus and PSG for Kolo Muani, explaining that the Parisian club is slowly opening the door to a loan of its French striker, which suits Juve, who cannot afford a transfer. The Turin daily still speculates on an improbable exchange with Dusan Vlahovic and does not mention a possible purchase option in the event of a loan while all other sources agree on the fact that Paris is demanding a minimum purchase option, one obligation ideally.
PSG and Juventus still discussing Kolo Muani
Sky Italia and La Gazzetta dello Sport assure in any case that Kolo Muani is indeed Juventus’ offensive priority for this winter. Journalist specializing in Juventus and notably working for Goal, Romeo Agresti tweeted in the afternoon that new contacts had taken place this Thursday between PSG and Juve for Kolo Muani. According to Sky Italia, PSG must also find his replacement before letting him leave and even if it is not the same profile, PSG has accelerated in recent hours on the Georgian winger from Naples, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.
Randal Kolo Muani is also being courted in the Bundesliga (Leipzig) and the Premier League where Aston Villa, Manchester United, Tottenham and Chelsea are interested. It is therefore difficult to know today where the Parisian striker will end up, but the interest of Juventus Turin is in any case very real. It remains to be seen whether the Italian club will find the economic resources and sporting arguments to satisfy PSG and the French international, whose salary cost for the second part of the season is estimated at 4 million euros net according to Sky Italia.
