Could Randal Kolo Muani pave the way for a PSG midfield boost? According to Europacalcio, Paris Saint-Germain is exploring a clever swap deal with Juventus: sending Kolo Muani to Turin permanently in exchange for Khephren Thuram.
Currently on loan at Juve, Kolo Muani has impressed enough to warrant serious interest from the Italian giants. PSG sees this as an opportunity to rekindle their long-standing interest in Thuram, who joined Juventus from Nice last summer for €20 million.
Building French Core
Luis Campos and PSG continue to push a strategy of building around young French talent, with recent successes like Bradley Barcola and Désiré Doué. Thuram, 24, fits that profile perfectly — a dynamic box-to-box midfielder with Ligue 1 experience and international pedigree.
Will Igor Tudor Approve?
With Igor Tudor recently replacing Thiago Motta at the helm of Juventus, it remains to be seen whether the Croatian coach is open to letting Thuram go. Much could depend on how Thuram fits into Tudor’s tactical plans — and whether the player himself is open to returning to France.
The summer window is heating up, and PSG might just have a smart deal in the making.
