Juventus have 4 alternatives if Kolo Muani deal fails 

Juventus continue to explore multiple options in their search for a new striker, refusing to focus on a single target as the summer transfer window unfolds.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Randal Kolo Muani remains the name at the very top of the club’s shortlist, especially after Youssef En-Nesyri’s sudden change of direction ruled him out as a realistic option.

However, the Bianconeri are keeping several parallel negotiations alive, determined not to be caught unprepared.

Kolo Muani Leads, Zirkzee Emerges as a Strong Alternative

While Kolo Muani is still viewed as the ideal profile, Juventus are fully aware of the complexities surrounding any potential deal. This is why Joshua Zirkzee has emerged as the primary alternative.

The Dutch forward is currently on the fringes at Manchester United and is expected to leave Old Trafford in the coming weeks. Zirkzee has already given his approval to a return to Serie A, a league where he previously impressed, and Manchester United are open to a loan move.

Notably, the English club would be willing to accept a straight loan without any obligation to buy next summer, a formula that Juventus find particularly appealing as they seek flexibility both on and off the pitch.

Multiple Names on the Table as Juventus Weigh Their Options

Beyond Kolo Muani and Zirkzee, several other attacking profiles have been proposed to Juventus’ sporting management.

Among them is Beto, currently at Everton and formerly of Udinese, a striker well known to Italian football.

Also under consideration is Biereth from Monaco, a younger option who fits the club’s long-term strategy.

Another name mentioned by La Gazzetta dello Sport is Marcos Leonardo of Al-Hilal. However, this remains a complicated track.

The Brazilian forward earns close to €20 million gross per season, a figure that would require significant financial support from the Saudi club to make any deal feasible.

As things stand, Juventus are carefully evaluating every scenario, aware that the final decision could shape their attacking identity for the upcoming season.
