Juventus are set to hold talks with Paris Saint-Germain over a permanent deal for Randal Kolo Muani, with the French striker expected to return to PSG this summer after a largely disappointing loan spell at Tottenham Hotspur and the Bianconeri identifying him as a priority attacking target.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, via CalcioMercato, Juventus directors have already scheduled a summit with PSG to establish the Ligue 1 champions’ demands for a permanent transfer. Kolo Muani spent part of last season on loan at Juventus, where he made an immediate impact and played a significant role in securing Champions League qualification.

His versatility, capable of leading the line alone, operating as a second striker or drifting wide, makes him an attractive option for Luciano Spalletti, who has demanded at least one new centre-forward this summer regardless of how the season concludes.

Juventus eye loan-to-buy structure as PSG open to Kolo Muani sale

The stumbling block is the fee. PSG paid €90 million to sign Kolo Muani from Eintracht Frankfurt in 2023, and the striker still carries a book value of around €36 million on their balance sheet. The Parisian club are reportedly willing to negotiate from approximately €40 million.

Juventus, however, are keen to structure the deal as a loan with an obligation to buy at a lower figure, aware that PSG’s book value on the player will drop to around €18 million in twelve months’ time. An offer in the region of €25 million for the purchase obligation would still represent a capital gain for PSG, giving both clubs room to reach an agreement.

Kolo Muani’s season at Tottenham has done little to strengthen his market value. Used predominantly out of position on the right flank under Thomas Frank, Igor Tudor and Roberto De Zerbi, the Frenchman never established himself as a key figure, and Spurs are not expected to pursue a permanent deal.
