Juventus is currently standing at a critical crossroads this season. To avoid jeopardizing the future of Randal Kolo Muani, the club must secure a Champions League spot for the next season.
Initially, the player almost never got his chance at Juventus, as his loan move was stalled by PSG’s extensive outbound loan activities. Once the situation was resolved, the club seized the opportunity to give him a chance, with the aim of making the move permanent via a transfer… but there is a catch.
To make this plan work, Juventus must at least finish in fourth place in Serie A. This position is not merely about sporting prestige; it is a strategic imperative—either to guarantee Champions League participation or to accept that the player may depart for good.
PSG ask for 60 millions
Meanwhile, PSG is holding firm with a transfer demand of roughly 60 million euros for Kolo Muani.
Beyond the sporting stakes, the financial benefits of qualifying for the Champions League are immense. According to Tuttosport, securing a Champions League spot could bring in no less than 65 million euros for the Italian club, providing a substantial financial boost and the stability needed to continue investing in a competitive squad and retaining key talents.
In this scenario, both the future of RKM and Juventus’ financial balance hinge on the team’s ability to finish among the top sides in the league. The pressure is immense, and any misstep could prove costly.
