Juventus is actively working to finalize agreements for Randal Kolo Muani and Jhon Lucumi before the month ends, with only minor details remaining to be settled.
As reported by Corriere dello Sport, progress is being made on Kolo Muani’s transfer, as the French forward has been informed about Juventus’ plan to enhance their latest offer with bonuses, pushing the total above €40 million to complete the deal with Paris Saint-Germain.
Initially, the French club asked for €50 million, and Juventus is currently negotiating the variable aspects and a sell-on clause to bridge the remaining gap.
The extended discussions led by Giovanni Carnevali and Frederic Massara have helped ease previous tensions while bringing both parties closer. However, Juventus’ strongest advantage lies in the player’s desire to join them.
This same motivation is influencing negotiations with Lucumi. The Colombian defender has paused offers from Galatasaray and Besiktas to honor his agreement with Juventus.
A departure from the defensive line could revitalize discussions with Bologna, a topic that Carnevali and Bologna’s Claudio Fenucci touched upon during a recent Lega assembly.

Juventus Considers Goalkeeping Options Amid Martinez Wait
The name of Emiliano Martinez remains in the conversation regarding goalkeeping options; Luciano Spalletti is interested and willing to wait a few more days for a decision.
However, with the deadline approaching, talks are intensifying regarding alternative options.
Guglielmo Vicario is eager to return to Italy, looking to reunite with his former national team coach. A loan deal with an option around €15 million is being discussed, as the goalkeeper is currently not in Roberto De Zerbi’s plans at Tottenham and recently missed a tour due to a minor ankle issue.
Additionally, Zion Suzuki is also on the radar, with a valuation of at least €30 million, and is being followed by both PSG and Aston Villa.
