Juventus targeting both Osimhen and Kolo Muani to replace Vlahovic | OneFootball

Juventus are already plotting moves ahead of the summer transfer window, and are reportedly hoping to pull off deals for both Victor Osimhen and Randal Kolo Muani as Dusan Vlahovic looks increasingly likely to leave the club in the next few months.

Juventus signed Kolo Muani to compete and rotate with Vlahovic during the January transfer window, but they were only able to secure a straight loan deal with Paris Saint-Germain until the end of the 2024-25 campaign.

As a result, Kolo Muani will return to Paris in the summer, but recent reports claim that the Bianconeri will look to agree another season-long loan deal and could possibly include an option to buy as well.

Luis Enrique has recently agreed a new contract extension as head coach of PSG, and it is understood that he is not particularly interested in reintegrating Kolo Muani after his loan spell.

Juventus targeting Osimhen as well as Kolo Muani extension

However, Juventus are not only planning a potential deal for the Frenchman, as La Gazzetta dello Sport (via Calciomercato.com) claims that Cristiano Giuntoli and his team are simultaneously working on a move for Osimhen, who is currently out on loan at Galatasaray from Napoli.

The Nigeria international has a release clause worth €75m in the summer, and like the Kolo Muani situation at PSG, is not expected to return to the Napoli squad.

As per Calciomercato.com, A deal for Osimhen will not be particularly easy for Juventus to pull off given his price tag and the fact that Napoli will not likely be willing to negotiate with a direct rival in the league.

Vlahovic, who has fallen out of favour since Kolo Muani arrived in January, is increasingly likely to leave Juventus over the summer, and the funds raised from his sale could be used to reinvest in a new centre-forward.
