Paris Saint-Germain have reportedly agreed to extend Randal Kolo Muani’s loan to Juventus until the end of the FIFA Club World Cup, which means that the Frenchman is now eligible to represent the Bianconeri in the United States.
Kolo Muani is currently on loan from PSG to Juventus on a deal until the end of the 2024-25 season, which, contractually, ends on June 30.
However, as both teams are involved in the upcoming Club World Cup, and given that it runs from mid-June until mid-July, the Frenchman would not have been eligible to turn out for Juve without a temporary extension to his loan deal.
Kolo Muani to play for Juventus at Club World Cup
According to reports from various outlets including La Gazzetta dello Sport, there were talks between PSG and Juventus on Friday, which have resulted in a short-term extension to Kolo-Muani’s loan deal, which will now expire at the end of the Club World Cup.
Saturday’s reports claim that Juventus remain confident of a further extension to Kolo Muani’s loan deal, which could see him stay in Turin until the end of the 2025-26 season as well.
Juventus will need to negotiate further with PSG, as La Gazzetta dello Sport estimates that it could cost up to €25m to bring Kolo Muani back to the Allianz Stadium for another season.
That is made up of a net salary just shy of €10m (close to €18m gross), plus an expected cost of around €7m on a loan fee and additional charges.
La Gazzetta dello Sport claims that the player is keen to remain in Turin for another season, given that he is not currently part of the first-team plans at the Parc des Princes.
