Juventus accelerated for Openda after Kolo Muani obstacles

Earlier this month, Football Italia exclusively confirmed that the Belgian striker was on the list of possible alternatives for the Old Lady, in the scenario they failed to bring Randal Kolo Muani back to the club after his successful loan spell in the second half of last season.

Obstacles in the club’s pursuit of Kolo Muani led the Bianconeri to give up on the Frenchman, instead pursuing a deal for Openda – which general manager Damien Comolli wrapped up quickly.

Juventus will reportedly pay around €40 million for the 25-year-old, who completed his medical tests this afternoon ahead of the transfer deadline.

Lois Openda arrives for his medical tests with Juventus on September 1, 2025.

Openda scored 33 goals in 69 Bundesliga appearances for Leipzig, after joining the German side from Ligue 1 outfit Lens in 2023. The Belgian also has 27 appearances and three goals for his national side.
