Juventus deal for Kolo Muani on hold as PSG hit loan limit

Juventus coach Thiago Motta confirmed he’s willing to call up Randal Kolo Muani for their Serie A meeting with Milan if the transfer is completed in time, but Paris Saint-Germain’s bureaucratic problems are forcing the club to postpone an official announcement for the striker.

The Italo-Brazilian manager looked confident about the possibility of including the newly-signed Frenchman in Saturday’s Allianz Stadium showdown as he spoke to reporters in his pre-match press conference, admitting the Bianconeri were ‘just waiting for the paperwork’.

Juventus delay Kolo Muani announcement amid PSG’s loan issues

However, the wait for an official statement from the Bianconeri stretched to the whole afternoon until some reports emerged, suggesting that PSG has realised they have exhausted the available slots for loan deals.

Romeo Agresti of Il Bianconero reported on Friday afternoon that the French outfit cannot finalise Kolo Muani’s temporary move to Juventus until they terminate the loan deal of one of the six players already out on loan, which is the maximum allowed under FIFA regulations.

Although the Old Lady has already an agreement signed with all parties involved, they won’t be able to officially announce the signing until PSG find a solution to their issue.
