Randal Kolo Muani reiterates desire to stay at Juventus despite Chelsea interest as Serie A side plot new loan bid

After struggling at Paris Saint-Germain, the striker thrived at Juventus on a six-month loan deal, scoring 10 goals and registering three assists, and the club are reportedly keen on keeping him beyond the initial agreement.

Juve could offer a one-year loan and an option to buy him for €40 million (£34m/$46m), La Gazzetta dello Sport reports, but they face competition for his signature. Chelsea are also interested in the French striker, but Juventus may have the advantage as the forward has spoken of his happiness in Turin.

Kolo Muani spoke about his desire to stay at Juve beyond the summer, telling reporters: "I don't know anything about Chelsea. I'm trying to focus on the Club World Cup, which is a very fast competition. Once the tournament is over, we'll see what happens on the market. If it were up to me, I'd stay here: I'm really happy at Juve, I feel great."

Juventus have won two out of two games in the Club World Cup and are set to take on Manchester City in the group decider. Once the tournament is over, Juventus will likely sit down with PSG and a decision on Kolo Muani's future will be made.
