How Sunderland can help Juventus unlock Kolo Muani transfer

Juventus are still unable to reach the finish line in their negotiations with Paris Saint-Germain for Randal Kolo Muani, but they might receive a helping hand from Sunderland.

The Bianconeri are hellbent on bringing the French striker back for a second spell after last season’s six-month loan stint. Moreover, the 26-year-old has made it clear that he only wants the Serie A giants, reportedly refusing the approaches of Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur.

But while Juve and PSG have been engaged in talks for weeks, they have yet to reach a definitive agreement on the formula and transfer fee.

While several sources have insisted that the two clubs are closing in on a final accord, the white smoke has yet to emerge, raising concerns amongst the fanbase.

But as La Gazzetta dello Sport (via TuttoJuve) explains, Damien Comolli and Francois Modesto must raise additional funds to launch a more convincing onslaught for the France international.
