Kolo Muani Close to Joining Juventus
Juventus are close to finalizing a deal to bring Paris Saint-Germain striker Randal Kolo Muani back to the club on a permanent basis.
The Italian side are in the advanced stages of negotiations with PSG, with an official announcement expected shortly, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport.
It is understood that the 27-year-old France international has already agreed personal terms on a five-year contract to return to Turin.
The deal currently being negotiated is a loan move with an obligation to buy for a fee in the region of €30m (£25.3m).
Kolo Muani spent the second half of last season on loan with the Serie A giants, scoring 10 goals in 22 appearances across all competitions.
Juventus chief executive Giovanni Carnevali is thought to have played a key role in smoothing over relations with the French champions to smooth the way for the transfer.
The club are pushing to conclude the paperwork before their pre-season training campaign begins on 13 July to ensure the forward is available from the first day.
