Randal Kolo Muani is likely to be on the move again this summer, with Manchester United keeping tabs on the forward’s situation.

The 26-year-old was a big-money signing when he arrived at Paris Saint-Germain from Eintracht Frankfurt in 2023 for €75 million (£64.2m) plus €15m (£12.2m) in add-ons.

However, things have not worked out for him in the French capital, scoring just 11 goals in 54 appearances before leaving for Juventus on loan in January.

His stint in Italy has been better, with the France international scoring eight goals in just 16 Serie A appearances over the six-month loan spell.

Kolo Muani’s time in Turin is now at an end, but with PSG in stunning, Champions League-winning form, there seems little chance that he will now break into Luis Enrique’s team.

L’Equipe report that the forward is now open to finding a new club, with Juventus keen to make his loan deal permanent.

Manchester United have also shown an interest in the striker in the past and are monitoring the situation, ready to pounce if they believe a deal can be done.

The Red Devils were interested in signing Kolo Muani on loan in January, as were Tottenham, but he opted to join Juventus instead.

After an encouraging stint with the Old Lady, it would appear they will be in the box seat to make the move permanent and they can offer Champions League football next season, which Manchester United cannot.

Il Corriere dello Sport report that PSG could be willing to accept as little as £35m for Kolo Muani, which is unlikely to put off suitors.

Much like in January, the French forward will likely have multiple options in front of him and a decision will be down to him.

Manchester United have already secured the services of Matheus Cunha from Wolves, but are looking to add another forward to their squad this summer.

Liam Delap was a target but he is set to swap Ipswich Town for Chelsea, while Bryan Mbeumo is also on the Red Devils’ radar but they face competition from Newcastle and Arsenal.

Viktor Gyokeres, Victor Osimhen and Jean-Philippe Mateta have also been touted as possible centre-forward signings, but are proving difficult.

In typically chaotic transfer speculation surrounding Old Trafford, Ruben Amorim’s side have also been linked with a move for Al Hilal striker Aleksandar Mitrovic.

There could also be a blockbuster move the other way this summer, with United captain Bruno Fernandes linked with a money-spinning switch to the Saudi club.
