Overview

• Tottenham completed the signing of Randal Kolo Muani on the final day of the window after presenting terms acceptable to PSG and the player.
• Juventus pursued a return for the forward through loan-based structures but stepped aside over costs, including a requested obligation to buy in the €60m range and the player's reported €8m salary alongside Dusan Vlahovic’s €12m wages.
• Juventus redirected resources to Lois Openda on loan with an option to buy for €40.6m plus bonuses and to Edon Zhegrova for €15m plus €3m in bonuses, with reports noting their combined salaries approximate Kolo Muani’s pay.
• French reports from l’Equipe and Calciomercato.com say PSG directors were furious with Juventus GM Damien Comolli after talks faltered, including a reported attempt to revise the obligation to €30m plus €10m in bonuses tied to Champions League qualification.
• Kolo Muani impressed on loan at Juventus earlier in 2025 with eight goals in 16 Serie A matches and participation in the FIFA Club World Cup, setting up strong interest before the deadline-day outcome.
