Juventus is already laying the groundwork for a busy summer transfer window, initiating early contacts and exploring potential targets.

The club is considering changes in its attacking lineup, with discussions revolving around the possibility of selling Jonathan David and making another push for Randal Kolo Muani.

The French forward previously wore the Bianconeri jersey during the second half of last season, and Juventus attempted to bring him back to Turin last summer.

At the time, Paris Saint-Germain asked for a mandatory purchase clause, but the deal fell through, and Kolo Muani moved to Tottenham on a loan deal at the very last day of the transfer window.

At the end of this season, the striker will return to PSG after his loan spell. Under contract with the French giants until 2028, Kolo Muani was signed from Eintracht Frankfurt in 2023 for €75 million plus €15 million in bonuses.

His presence on PSG’s next financial statements will carry a value of roughly €30 million, which is essentially the figure Juventus would need to invest to secure his services.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Serie A side is even considering including Jonathan David in negotiations, potentially easing the financial burden.

Potential Swap Deal Could Benefit Both Clubs

Jonathan David, who has struggled to find consistency in Italy, has attracted the interest of PSG sporting director Pablo Longoria. Longoria knows David well from his Lille days, having initially scouted him from Gent.

A swap deal involving Kolo Muani and David could be mutually beneficial. For Juventus, selling a player who arrived on a free transfer last summer would result in a significant profit, while PSG would avoid recording a loss on a player who no longer fits Luis Enrique’s project.

Financially, the deal makes sense for both sides, as the players’ wages are similar, hovering around €6–7 million per season plus bonuses. Age-wise, they are also comparable, with David being slightly younger by a couple of years.

Both players, however, are in search of a fresh start and consistent playing time to reignite their careers, making the potential exchange a practical and strategic solution.

With the summer window approaching, Juventus seems determined to rebuild its attack, and Kolo Muani remains the centerpiece of that plan, with GdS highlighting this as one of the club’s top priorities.
