Randal Kolo Muani is making waves at the Club World Cup — and his latest statement might just shake up the summer transfer window.
Currently on loan from PSG to Juventus, the 26-year-old forward delivered a brilliant performance in Juve’s opening match of the tournament, scoring a clinical brace against Al Ain. The message is loud and clear: he’s thriving in Turin.
“I want to stay”: RKM makes his intentions known
After the match, Kolo Muani didn’t hold back: “I want to stay. I’m happy here. I can play well and score goals.” A bold declaration that puts pressure on all parties — Juventus, PSG, and even other European suitors possibly lurking in the shadows.
Juve want him, PSG want to sell
Juventus are interested in keeping the French international but would prefer a renewed loan with an option to buy. However, PSG are leaning toward a full transfer, hoping to recoup a sizable fee after spending €90 million (£76.5m) on him in 2023.
The complication? Juve already have to resolve the future of Dusan Vlahović, whose contract runs until 2026, and they remain keen on Victor Osimhen from Napoli. That’s a potential logjam in attack — and limited budget space.
Kolo Muani’s resurgence might boost his market value, which could tempt PSG to cash in this summer. Meanwhile, Juventus must now act quickly if they want to secure him permanently before rivals circle.
For now, the ball is in Paris’s court — and Kolo Muani has just raised the stakes.
