Newcastle United’s Striker Short List Doesn’t Include Juventus Target Amid PSG Doubt | OneFootball

Randal Kolo Muani’s future remains uncertain, but one thing is clear: his time at PSG is coming to an end. The French forward impressed during his loan at Juventus last season, tallying 10 goal contributions in just 19 appearances across all competitions.

With the transfer window now open, no deal has yet been reached between Juventus and PSG, leaving Kolo Muani’s next destination undecided. Several Premier League clubs are reportedly keeping a close eye on the situation.

Earlier this month, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano said Juventus remain confident they can sign Kolo Muani permanently. So far, the forward has only held talks with the Italian side, with no progress reported from Newcastle United or Tottenham.

The Daily Mail’s Craig Hope reported that Newcastle have three targets on their shortlist to bolster their striker position with Alexander Sorloth, Yoane Wissa, and Jørgen Strand Larsen.

Despite the rumors linking the Magpies to Kolo Muani, it appears they moved on, considering the Frenchman has his heart set on returning to Juventus. However, no agreement has been reached between the Serie A side and PSG.

Corriere dello Sport reports that PSG are asking €70 million for Randal Kolo Muani, while Juventus hope to finalize a deal closer to €45 million. PSG’s aim is to avoid a loss, having originally invested €57 million in the forward.
