Kolo Muani fought for Juve return
Randal Kolo Muani explained his reason for returning to Juventus is because "it's a story that isn't over".
Kolo Muani completed a reported €38m move, with a maximum of €12m in add-ons, from Paris Saint-Germain to Juve last week, signing a five-year deal with the Bianconeri.
The 27-year-old previously spent the second half of the 2024-25 season on loan with Juve after struggling to find his feet at PSG.
He made 22 appearances for Juve, scoring 10 goals and three assists, though he was loaned to Tottenham for the 2025-26 campaign.
Kolo Muani struggled at Spurs, scoring just five goals in 41 appearances as they battled relegation from the Premier League, but he is delighted to now join Juve on a permanent deal.
"Finally, I'm relieved," Kolo Muani told the club's media.
"I've wanted to come back for a while, and this moment has arrived. It's a story that isn't over; I wanted to finish it.
"That's why I did everything possible to try to return. We're going to continue writing this beautiful story."
During his loan spell with Juve, Kolo Muani both scored (10) and directly contributed (13) to more goals than any of his team-mates.
His 27.03% shot conversion rate was also the best at the club, while only Khephren Thuram and Andrea Cambiasso (both four) provided more assists.
Luciano Spalletti's side still have to face Chelsea, Inter and Palermo in pre-season friendlies before their Serie A campaign begins on August 23 away to Frosinone.
Kolo Muani could make his second home debut six days later when Juve host Parma.
