AC Milan and Juventus' battle over same 'formidable' Man Utd-linked star has Ruben Amorim's ace as 'alternative' target

Manchester United are expected to remain active in the summer transfer window despite their financial constraints, with the club linked to both midfielders and strikers. However, they face limitations in spending power and will need to offload players. Manager Ruben Amorim also faces a challenge after taking over during a turbulent period.

Striker Randal Kolo Muani, previously linked to Manchester United, is now a key transfer target. He spent the second half of the 2024-25 season on loan at Juventus from Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) but returned to PSG in July after his loan expired. He is considered expendable by PSG manager Luis Enrique.

Juventus are reportedly interested in signing Kolo Muani on a permanent deal. However, AC Milan have emerged as a surprise contender for the player, potentially complicating Juventus' pursuit. PSG is asking for a transfer fee of €50 million for Kolo Muani. Newcastle United are also reportedly monitoring the situation.
