Damien Comolli, Juventus’ newly appointed general manager, has confirmed that Kolo Muani will be staying with the Bianconeri for the upcoming Club World Cup campaign, after assuring Igor Tudor’s future at the club. However, Kolo Muani’s future for the rest of the season is yet to be decided, with Comolli stating the player is interested in staying, but a deal with Paris Saint-Germain for another loan term is yet to be struck.

Kolo Muani, after receiving less playing time at Luis Enrique’s PSG, shifted base to Juventus on loan. He impressed by scoring eight goals in the recently concluded Serie A. Juventus are currently ongoing a massive change in structure, with former player Giorgio Chiellini being promoted to the director of football strategy role and two more technical appointments, namely a sporting director and a technical director, to follow.
