Juventus finds themselves in a challenging position as they pursue Paris Saint-Germain striker Randal Kolo Muani, with Premier League clubs holding the advantage in the transfer race. The Italian giants, while primarily focused on bolstering their defence, are keeping a close eye on potential attacking reinforcements for the upcoming transfer window.
TMW report how recent developments suggest that Kolo Muani has fallen out of favour with PSG and manager Luis Enrique, paving the way for a potential January move. Juventus has reportedly engaged in discussions with both the player’s entourage and an intermediary to explore the possibility of a transfer. PSG is open to letting the French international leave on loan with an obligation to buy.
However, the competition from England poses a significant obstacle for Juventus. Manchester United, Tottenham, Manchester City, and Liverpool are all showing strong interest in Kolo Muani. The allure of the Premier League appears to be a decisive factor, with the player himself reportedly instructing his representatives to prioritize negotiations with English clubs.
While Juventus remain vigilant should an opportunity arise, they are also considering alternatives. Joshua Zirkzee continues to be on the club’s radar, with manager Thiago Motta particularly fond of the Dutch striker from their time together at Bologna. Zirkzee’s current struggles at Manchester United, coupled with new manager Ruben Amorim’s preference for his protégé Gyokeres, could potentially open the door for a move.
