Juventus complete signings of Alajbegovic and Kolo Muani

n n

Juventus signed Bosnian teenager Kerim Alajbegovic on a five-year deal from Bayer Leverkusen on Sunday and brought back French striker Randal Kolo Muani for a second spell at the club.

n

The 18-year-old Alajbegovic played in all four of Bosnia and Herzegovina’s matches at this summer’s World Cup, after a breakout season with Red Bull Salzburg.

n

Leverkusen activated a buy-back clause in the deal with Salzburg before agreeing to sell the winger to Juventus.

n

Juventus also completed a permanent move for Paris Saint-Germain forward Kolo Muani, who had a successful loan spell in Turin during the second half of the 2024-25 season.

n

However, he struggled to make an impact at Tottenham last term, scoring just five goals in 41 appearances as the club narrowly avoided relegation from the Premier League.

n

Kolo Muani joined European champions PSG in 2023 for a reported 75 million euros plus bonuses but failed to justify the fee, with a return of 11 goals in 54 games.
