ROME, Jan. 23 (Xinhua) -- Juventus finally announced the loan move of France international Randal Kolo Muani from Paris Saint-Germain on Thursday, after the French Ligue 1 side ironed out the administrative issues.
Muani had already undergone the medicals and signed the paperwork, even has been training with the squad since last week, but the Serie A giant had to wait to make it official, as PSG had maxed out the quote to loan out player to foreign clubs.
PSG eventually freed up the slot for Muani's move, as it terminated another loanee Juan Bernat's contract and allowed him to join Villarreal on a permanent basis.
Muani has signed a contract until the end of the season which is a dry loan deal without a buy-out clause included, it is reported that Juve will cover all the salary for the remainder of the season.
It's a win-win operation for both sides, as Muani was struggling for playing time under Luis Enrique, only making two starts for PSG in 14 appearances across all competitions this season contributing two goals. Juve is also short of options in its attacking department.
Muani has picked up the No. 20 jersey, and he is Juve's second signing in this winter transfer window, following the defender Alberto Costa from Vitoria Guimaraes. ■
