According to a report from Tuttosport, both Manchester United and Newcastle United have entered the race to sign Randal Kolo Muani. Their interest emerges as negotiations between Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) and Juventus for the French forward have hit an impasse.
The English Premier League giants, Manchester United and Newcastle, are now actively pursuing the PSG-owned striker, Kolo Muani. This comes at a time when Juventus is encountering difficulties in securing a permanent deal to keep the French international in Turin.

Premier League competition for Kolo Muani isn`t limited to these two clubs, as Chelsea had also previously expressed interest in the talented forward.
Kolo Muani spent the latter half of the 2024-25 season on loan with Juventus, a period that included his participation in the Club World Cup.
In June, the striker had publicly expressed his desire to remain in Turin for the 2025-26 season, contingent upon PSG and Juventus reaching an amicable agreement.

However, the latest reports suggest that PSG is not prepared to accept Juventus`s current offer. Tuttosport indicates that Juventus proposed a deal structured as a €10 million loan for one season, with an option to purchase the player for an additional €30 million.
Corriere dello Sport corroborates the difficulties Juventus is facing in reaching an agreement for Kolo Muani. Consequently, Juventus might explore alternative options, with Manchester United`s forward Rasmus Hojlund being a potential target.
This summer, Juventus has already bolstered their attack by signing Jonathan David and is reportedly planning to sell Dusan Vlahovic.
