Manchester United looks poised to miss out on Paris Saint-Germain forward Randal Kolo Muani, with reports indicating that he has accepted a loan move to Serie A powerhouse Juventus.
According to Italian outlet Tutto Juve, the Red Devils were preparing to submit an official offer for the French international, competing against Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur, both of whom have shown strong interest in the gifted striker in recent months.
This season, Manchester United has struggled to find the back of the net in the Premier League, with Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee both facing difficulties in scoring consistently. Consequently, manager Amorim has reportedly prioritized the acquisition of a centre forward.
As the transfer saga unfolds, it appears Manchester United will lose out to Juventus in their quest for a new striker.
Randal Kolo Muani, who grew up in Paris as a devoted PSG fan, first made waves in the Nantes academy, earning his Ligue 1 debut in 2019 under manager Vahid Halilhodžić. Known for his impressive physicality, speed, and ability to hold the ball for teammates, Kolo Muani truly began to showcase his goal-scoring prowess in the 2019/20 season, netting nine goals in 37 appearances, including a crucial strike that helped his team avoid relegation in a play-off against Toulouse.
