Randal Kolo Muani returns to Paris Saint-Germain training amid Juventus transfer delay
Paris Saint-Germain welcomed striker Randal Kolo Muani back to training on Friday, July 17, 2026, as his move to Juventus remains stalled. The French club is counting on keeping the international forward to bolster its Ligue 1 attack.
Why is the Juventus transfer on hold?
Randal Kolo Muani’s transfer to Juventus has been delayed due to disagreements over the release clause. The two clubs have failed to agree on the final fee, putting the contract signing on ice. The player, however, is following Paris Saint-Germain’s instructions and training as usual.
What does this mean for Paris Saint-Germain?
For Paris Saint-Germain, Kolo Muani’s presence at training is a relief. The 27-year-old forward remains a key offensive option for Luis Enrique, especially after Kylian Mbappé’s departure to Real Madrid. A prolonged absence could have weakened the Parisian squad, which is already rebuilding.
What’s next for Kolo Muani?
Two scenarios lie ahead for the player. Either Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus reach an agreement in the coming days, or the Italian club may pull out of the deal. Either way, Kolo Muani remains under contract with Paris Saint-Germain until the end of the 2025-2026 season, per Ligue de Football Professionnel rules.
