Juventus stalls on Kolo Muani deal as PSG demands exceed €45 million

Juventus continues to target French forward Randal Kolo Muani, but Paris Saint‑Germain’s asking price of more than €45‑50 million is deemed excessive by Juventus director Giovanni Carnevali, who says the club will not meet that level.

The Italian side has set a week‑long deadline for a decision and, if talks collapse, will turn to other options. Listed alternatives include Norway’s Alexander Sørloth, Spain’s Mikel Oyarzabal and Monaco/USA striker Folarin Balogun. Juventus is also monitoring interest from Premier League clubs such as Aston Villa, Crystal Palace and Borussia Dortmund, which could influence PSG’s negotiating stance.

The impasse follows Muani’s previous loan spell at Juventus in 2025 and his recent season at Tottenham. While Juventus seeks to control spending, PSG aims to recoup part of the €95 million they paid for the striker in 2023.
