Timeline for Kolo Muani’s Juventus comeback revealed

Randal Kolo Muani is just a step away from returning to Juventus. According to Tuttosport, negotiations between the Bianconeri and Paris Saint-Germain are entering the final stages and could be concluded as early as tomorrow.

Head coach Igor Tudor and the rest of the squad are already awaiting the French striker’s arrival ahead of the Serie A season opener.

The operation, which Juventus has been pursuing throughout the summer (and even earlier), now appears to be nearing completion. The deal will be structured as a paid loan with an obligation to buy, for a total fee of around €55 million.

This represents a compromise between Juventus and PSG, who initially demanded €65 million. A long-term contract running until 2030 is already prepared for Kolo Muani, regardless of the unresolved situation surrounding Dusan Vlahovic.

The Serbian striker is expected to remain on the sidelines if he stays with the club, and his goal in yesterday’s match has not altered the club’s stance. Kolo Muani’s return to Juventus is confirmed to proceed independently of Vlahovic’s future.

If everything is finalized in time, Kolo Muani could be available for Juventus’ league debut next Sunday against Parma.

Meanwhile, Juventus is also making progress on another key front in the transfer market. The sale of Douglas Luiz to Nottingham Forest is nearing completion.

The Premier League club has reportedly overtaken both Everton and West Ham in the race for the Brazilian midfielder, having reached agreements with both the player and Juventus.

The Bianconeri are keen to avoid a capital loss on the investment made just a year ago and are pushing for a deal worth approximately €39 million—a figure that Forest has come very close to meeting.

Once that move is finalized, Juventus plans to pursue Luiz’s potential replacement: Brighton midfielder Matt O’Riley. The Danish international, valued at around €30 million, scored in his Premier League season debut yesterday, further raising his profile as a top target.
