This move marks the end of a long-running transfer saga that has seen Juventus track Kolo Muani across multiple windows. The Frenchman is a familiar face to the Turin faithful, having previously spent a successful productive stint with the club. During the second half of the 2024-25 season, he netter eight goals from 16 Serie A appearances while on loan.
Following that initial spell in Italy, Kolo Muani spent the 2025-26 campaign on loan with Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League. While his time in London provided further experience in a different top European league, the move was not made permanent, leaving the door open for Juventus to reignite their interest. Having monitored his situation closely throughout his time in England and France, the Bianconeri hierarchy decided that this summer was the right moment to finally secure his services on a long-term basis.
