According to reports from France, Juventus intends to wait until the final moments of the transfer window to secure Randal Kolo Muani on a dry loan from PSG, without an obligation to buy.
The Turin club had previously agreed to terms for a loan deal that included a €60 million obligation to purchase the player at the season`s end.
However, Juventus has reassessed its position in recent days, largely because director Damien Comolli confirmed that Dusan Vlahovic is “99 percent” likely to remain with the club.
Is Kolo Muani Still a Juventus Priority?
French newspaper Le Parisien suggests that the Old Lady is no longer willing to overspend on the center-forward.
Aware of Kolo Muani`s uncertain future at Paris Saint-Germain, Juventus hopes to finalize a simple paid loan deal without a permanent purchase option, thereby postponing a significant transfer fee until next summer.
This strategy could also be a negotiating tactic to pressure PSG into lowering their asking price, which reportedly increased just a few weeks ago despite ongoing discussions.
