Transfer Battle Heats Up: Manchester United and Juventus Clash Over PSG Star Randal Kolo Muani, But Player Prefers The Latter

Manchester United stepped up their search for PSG forward Randal Kolo Muani as the January transfer window approached, as it emerged that the Frenchman is up for sale on a loan basis.

Florian Plettenberg claims United are willing to make the proposed deal a permanent one, and PSG seem eager to sell the 26-year-old.

Kolo Muani has been limited to a few playing times since the arrival of PSG’s new boss, Luis Enrique, which led the club to the hunt for his sale.

Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim remains keen on the forward, but other European sides, such as Juventus,s, have also joined the race. More to the point, Tuttosport says that Kolo Muani himself is keen on a move to Juventus and joining Dusan Vlahovic in the attack.

Ligue 1 champions PSG are reportedly interested in Napoli star Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, and the Parisian club may pursue multiple transfers simultaneously.

Randal Kolo Muani Prefers A Move To Juventus

But Chelsea, Arsenal, and Tottenham are also said to have an interest in Kolo Muani, and this is why there is a lot of competition for the player. Specifically, Tottenham has their hopes pinned on securing the French international who will help beef up the forward’s position.

One more strong facet of Kolo Muani could have attracted Amorim – the fact that the player can perform both as an attacking midfielder and as a winger. However, his reported preference for Juventus could pose a threat to the team’s planning of the transfer.

Juventus, needing to compensate for the absence of Arkadiusz Milik, is targeting Randal Kolo Muani as a key acquisition. The Bianconeri may be able to offer him significant playing time alongside Dusan Vlahovic, which is likely something the player is seeking.

There are suggestions that Manager Thiago Motta is advocating for the club to finalize the signing before the transfer window closes.

Manchester United should waste no time in signing Kolo Muani since the battle for the PSG forward’s signature will be as competitive as that between Juventus and Manchester United.
