Juventus Seeks Kolo Muani Alternatives Amid PSG €60M Asking Price

Juventus have been actively pursuing the permanent signing of Randal Kolo Muani from Paris Saint-Germain, but negotiations have stalled due to PSG raising their asking price to between €60 million and €70 million. Although Kolo Muani is eager to return to Turin and has even been willing to reduce his salary, Juventus have only offered €50 million, creating a significant gap between the clubs. With time running out in the summer transfer window, Juventus are exploring alternative striker options, including RB Leipzig’s Lois Openda, Atalanta’s Ademola Lookman, Manchester United’s Rasmus Hojlund, and Chelsea’s Nicolas Jackson and Christopher Nkunku. Juventus also remain committed to keeping their current top scorer Dusan Vlahovic, who has been in good form and is not unsettled by the transfer saga. The club’s financial situation and the high demands from PSG have forced Juventus to consider a shift in strategy, potentially pivoting to more affordable and stylistically diverse striker profiles. This ongoing saga highlights Juventus' struggle to finalize their attacking lineup ahead of the new season amid complex transfer negotiations.
