Kolo Muani confirms he prefers Juventus over Chelsea

Juventus striker Randal Kolo Muani is unaware of interest from Chelsea but insists he wants to stay in Turin after the Club World Cup.

The France international spoke to Tuttosport after a 4-1 win over Wydad.

The Serie A giants have already qualified for the Round of 16 with a game to spare and will face Manchester City in the final group stage game on Thursday.

Kolo Muani is on loan from PSG until the end of the Club World Cup, but Juventus hope to retain the France international for the 2025-26 campaign.

Kolo Muani wants Juventus stay despite Chelsea rumours

The French forward had also been linked with a move to Chelsea, but has clear ideas about his future.

“I don’t know anything about Chelsea, I’m trying to focus on the Club World Cup. We’ll see what happens on the market at the end of the competition,” he said.

“If it were only up to me, I’d stay here as I’m really happy at Juventus.”

Kolo Muani impressed by Yildiz

Kolo Muani appears particularly pleased about playing alongside Kenan Yildiz, scorer of three goals in his opening two Club World Cup appearances.

Kolo Muani, on the other hand, scored a brace in the competition’s opener against Al Ain last week.

“Mamma Mia! He [Yildiz] is too good, too good,” said Kolo Muani.

“Playing with him is pure magic; you can see it in training. He’s on another level and a fantastic lad. It’s a pleasure to share the pitch with him.

“I think he has the quality to play in the most prestigious clubs in the world. I hope he’ll win trophies at this club; he has everything to achieve it.”

Yildiz has also been linked with Chelsea and Arsenal, but the Turkish talent has insisted that he’s happy at Juventus.
