Juventus are preparing for a major attacking overhaul this summer, with Victor Osimhen and Randal Kolo Muani emerging as key targets.

The idea is to use any of both players to replace the likely departure of forward Dusan Vlahovic.

Kolo Muani arrived on loan from Paris Saint-Germain in January to provide competition for Vlahovic, but the Bianconeri could not secure a permanent deal.

With the Frenchman set to return to PSG at the end of the season, Juventus are exploring another season-long loan with an option to buy.

Reports suggest that PSG boss Luis Enrique is not keen on reintegrating Kolo Muani into his squad, which could work in Juve’s favor.

Meanwhile, La Gazzetta dello Sport (via Calciomercato.com) reports that Juventus are also plotting a move for Napoli’s Osimhen, who is currently on loan at Galatasaray.

The Nigerian striker has a €75m release clause and is not expected to return to Napoli, making him a prime target.

However, securing Osimhen will be a challenge, as Napoli are reluctant to negotiate with a direct Serie A rival.

With Vlahovic out of favour since Kolo Muani’s arrival, Juventus are expected to offload the Serbian striker this summer.

The funds generated from his sale could be reinvested into securing a new top-tier centre-forward, with Osimhen and Kolo Muani leading the shortlist.
