Will Kolo Muani Stay at Juventus or Move to the Premier League?
Kolo Muani’s Future: Juventus, PSG, or the Premier League?
Uncertain Future for Kolo Muani
Kolo Muani’s future remains a significant talking point as Juventus, Paris Saint-Germain, and Premier League clubs weigh up their options. The French forward, currently on loan at Juventus, has struggled for form recently, leading to speculation about his next move.
As Calciomercato reports, “On the Juventus side, as repeatedly supported by the head of the sporting area, there are no doubts. Kolo remains an absolute top-level profile and everything will be done to try to secure a new loan from Paris.” However, PSG have different plans—they want to sell Muani outright, maximising their financial return rather than extending his stay in Turin.
Juventus’ Transfer Dilemma
Juventus are in a period of transition, with both managerial and squad uncertainties shaping their summer strategy. The club’s qualification for the Champions League could prove decisive. If they secure a top-four finish, they may be able to retain Muani, but doubts persist. “The Frenchman hasn’t scored for a month, he has stopped and shows no signs of recovery,” Calciomercato notes.
Juventus’ need for a world-class striker is clear, with names like Victor Osimhen being considered. The report states that while Muani could be part of the attack, he would need to be paired with a more established number nine. This uncertainty could push the club towards a complete overhaul of their frontline.
Premier League Interest in Muani
Newcastle United are emerging as a key player in this transfer saga. Their potential sale of Alexander Isak could create a vacancy that Muani might fill. “Kolo Muani has a lot of market in the Premier League, above all Newcastle who can open the waltz of the strikers, with the fate of Isak yet to be discovered,” the report highlights.
With English clubs often willing to invest in young, talented forwards, Muani’s pace and versatility make him an attractive option. However, his recent dip in form raises questions about whether he can truly command a starting role at a top Premier League club. If Newcastle make their move, PSG would likely welcome a permanent transfer, aligning with their goal of selling rather than loaning the striker.
PSG’s Position and Muani’s Preference
For PSG, the decision appears straightforward—cash in on Muani and reinvest in the squad. Their summer plans involve restructuring the attack, and Muani’s sale could help fund new signings. The report indicates that “the ambition of the French is to immediately sell the striker and not necessarily to Juve, to whom the player was kindly loaned with a very clear aim. That of re-evaluating him and putting him on display for next summer.”
Muani himself is in a difficult position. He has enjoyed regular playing time at Juventus but has not yet rediscovered his best form. If he is to stay in Turin, it will likely be under new conditions, including Champions League football and a strong long-term project. With options open in Italy, France, and England, the decision on his future will be one of the most intriguing storylines of the summer transfer window.

The debate over Muani is about whether he is worth investing in long-term. His pace and movement offer something different, but his lack of goals raises concerns. If Juventus are serious about challenging domestically and in Europe, pairing him with a proven finisher may be necessary.
Newcastle fans will see Muani as an exciting potential addition, but his inconsistency at Juventus might raise doubts. If Isak leaves, fans would likely prefer a more established striker rather than another player needing development. However, Muani’s physicality and ability to stretch defences could fit well in Eddie Howe’s system, making him an intriguing option if the price is right.
For PSG, the writing appears to be on the wall. Muani’s arrival last summer was met with optimism, but with the club’s attack set for an overhaul, it seems unlikely he will be part of their long-term vision. A sale to the Premier League would be financially beneficial, and given their ambitions, PSG need more reliable goal contributions from their forwards.
With the summer approaching, Muani’s next destination remains uncertain. Juventus, Newcastle, or elsewhere—his performances in the final months of the season could ultimately dictate where he lands.
