Juve market, Kolo Muani’s return at risk: Spalletti increasingly unnerved. News for Douglas Luiz
Juventus in the last few hours has taken the road to the return of Randal Kolo Muani to the Bianconeri. After the skipped tracks for Mateta and En Nesyri, the Piedmontese club executives are back to examine the’hypothesis of a return to Turin of the French forward owned by Paris Saint-Germain, now on loan at Tottenham. The player is not distinguishing himself in London and signals of a possible farewell have reportedly arrived from Spurs, but the final word rests with PSG itself, owner of the player’s card.
And the response from the French champions came with a flat no. The Parisian management, which is not on the best of terms with the Juventus one due to past rusties, has decided at the moment not to give the green light for a return of the player to Italy. The Old Lady is counting on the transalpine’s willingness to soften PSG’s position but in the meantime is thinking of several alternatives: at the moment a possible arrival of Joshua Zirkzee from Manchester United is unlikely, as is a return on Mateta from Crysyal Palace.
The names on the list also include those of Everton striker Beto, who played in Italy with the Udinese shirt, and Monaco forward Mika Biereth. Spalletti commented on Juventus’ market problems in the following way: “In attack we also have McKennie, who is a perfect central striker and I will show you: he is one of the strongest there is to play center forward because he is always where the ball is, he is strong in the head, he attacks depth like nobody”.
In the meantime, news arrives on Douglas Luiz, the Brazilian midfielder on loan in England: the’former Bianconero changes teams but will remain in the Premier League. In fact, Aston Villa has reached an agreement with Juventus: the Greenoro player will move on an interest-bearing loan to the Villans with an option to buy.
Nottingham in the coming hours will terminate the loan of Douglas Luiz, who will return to Juventus and then be immediately turned over to Aston Villa before the end of the market.
