Transfer news – Kolo Muani deal stalls: PSG demand more, tensions rise

Randal Kolo Muani, the 26-year-old striker for the French national team who was struggling at Paris Saint-Germain, has been loaned to Juventus Turin until the end of the 2024-2025 season without a purchase option. The Turin club and the player quickly expressed their desire to continue together. However, an agreement with PSG has still not been reached and other possibilities are being considered, notably in the Premier League. L’Equipe takes stock this Sunday with a price a bit higher than previously announced.

“With a stated goal of around €60 million.”

“The French international (31 caps, 9 goals), who felt comfortable during his loan in Turin at the start of the year, wanted to extend his stay at the Piedmont club. In this matter, PSG wants to recoup (at least some of) the €90 million spent in the summer of 2023. With a stated goal of around €60 million. The exchanges between the two parties have been extensive. But beyond the total amount, the stumbling block is the payment schedule. Comolli is not keen on paying a large sum up front this summer.”

“English clubs remain attentive.”

At the same time, the player was not pleased with leaks in the Italian press about a contract already finalized with Juventus. Which is not the case. In this context, could the former Nantes player slip away from Juve? That’s not the current trend. But English clubs remain attentive. Manchester United, Tottenham, and even Newcastle—should Alexander Isak depart—are keeping in touch.”

A small surprise: a price that would ultimately be €60 million. For weeks, all the media outlets were reporting around €45-50 million, so this is quite an increase. It’s credible, but we can’t be certain. Especially since there is no agreement. However, the main obstacle seems to be the terms, a point that could lead to a definitive deadlock. Even though there is hope that negotiations will progress.

For now, Kolo Muani still seems to be giving priority to Juventus. However, that could change quickly. The striker probably doesn’t want to wait another month. Especially since there are interesting opportunities that could quickly emerge in the Premier League, a league that is often tempting.

Let’s hope all this leads to an acceleration soon. This saga has gone on far too long, for both PSG and Kolo Muani.
