Juventus boss Thiago Motta confirms Randal Kolo Muani’s Serie A arrival from PSG-OxBig News Network

Juventus manager Thiago Motta has confirmed the arrival of Randal Kolo Muani from Ligue 1 giants Paris St Germain, saying the French star is likely to play against AC Milan on Saturday.

Muani passed his medical exam in Turin before joining the Serie A club on loan until the end of the season. The star forward will be declared a Juventus player after the final documents are exchanged between the two clubs.

“I am happy with the arrival of Kolo Muani,” Motta told the reporters in Italy. “We are just waiting for some final pieces of paperwork to complete the transfer. If everything goes to plan, he will be with us tomorrow, otherwise we will have him from the next match.”

Kolo Muani has decided to leave PSG after finding himself out of favour at the Ligue 1 giants. The star forward scored two goals in his first three games in the French League.

“I expect everything from Randal both on and off the pitch,” Motta added. “I asked him to train well, work well and do everything he has to do to be available. I asked him, I ask all my players.”

Motta has also confirmed that the Serbian striker Dusan Vlahovic has trained well and will strenghthen the club’s attack.

“Vlahovic will be with the group tomorrow, he has trained well over the last few days,” Motta said. “Dusan has been left out of the last two games in order to give him time to recover, but, as I said, he will be in the squad for the match against AC Milan.”

Juventus are ranked fifth in the Serie A points table after three back-to-back draws.

“We definitely want to stay (within the reach of) the Champions League zone,” Motta said. “Tomorrow we have an important opportunity to play at home against Milan… Obviously tomorrow the championship will not end (but we need to be) at the maximum: focused, motivated, to put in a great performance to get the victory.”
