Kolo Muani is very close to becoming a player for Juventus Turin again, closing one of the longest chapters of the summer. The French forward, aged 27, belongs to Paris Saint-Germain, has a contract until 2028, and has been making it clear for weeks that his priority was to wear the bianconeri jersey again.

According to 'Gazzetta dello Sport', the negotiation has reached a decisive phase with a formula that benefits all parties: initial loan with a mandatory purchase in the summer of 2027. The total cost would exceed 30 million euros, an amount lower than the 40 million that the Parisian club had set as a starting point.

Kolo Muani and Juventus Turin, a relationship that called for continuity

Juventus Turin has not forgotten the impact Kolo Muani had during his previous spell at the club. In the first part of 2025, the Frenchman scored 10 goals and provided 3 assists in 22 matches, a performance that helped the team qualify for the Champions League and left a clear impression: his integration in Turin was immediate.

Hence, the player's insistence has been decisive. The forward was on vacation, but his circle maintained a firm position: waiting for Juve. Neither the Premier League nor Saudi Arabia managed to change a decision that had been well thought out for weeks. This desire has led Paris Saint-Germain to accept a more flexible departure.

Paris Saint-Germain accepts a sale below expectations

The case also reflects a significant change in the market. Paris Saint-Germain paid a very high amount for the striker in 2023, but his tenure in the French capital never fully materialized. Now, the French club prefers to close a beneficial deal rather than keep a player without a real place in the project.

His spell at Tottenham also did not help restore his value. Last season, he played 41 matches and scored 5 goals in the Premier League and the Champions League, modest numbers for a forward of his caliber. This drop in performance explains how Juventus managed to lower a deal that a few months ago seemed much more expensive.

An operation watched closely from LaLiga as well

Although not a direct move from LaLiga, the signing could have indirect effects on the Spanish market. The arrival of a top striker in Turin may close doors to other forwards, change goals, and speed up dismissals in clubs looking to strengthen their attack before the end of the summer.

In Spain, several teams are still waiting for offensive opportunities, especially when prices drop and the major leagues start making moves. Kolo Muani's situation shows that even high-cost players can enter a phase of reduction if they lose prominence, something that LaLiga is watching closely.

For Juventus, the operation makes sense both in sports and economics. They get back a striker who has already performed, avoid an immediate purchase, and defer the major payment to 2027. For the player, it means returning to the environment where he felt best in recent months. And for PSG, it allows unlocking a needed departure.

If there is no unexpected twist, Kolo Muani will join Juventus' training camp before July 13th. The agreement with Juventus Turin seems on track, and Paris Saint-Germain resigns to completing a sale lower than expected. The market loses a significant uncertainty, and Kolo Muani regains the path he always wanted to take.
