Randal Kolo Muani, on loan to the Juventus, may not extend his stay at the Italian club due to increased competition in attack. Information from the Gazzetta dello Sport indicates that the 26-year-old still has no guarantee for a second season in Turin. Several factors hinder this extension, including the arrival of Jonathan David, the evolution of Kenan Yildiz’s status, the desire to acquire Victor Osimhen and Dusan Vlahovic’s high salary, which limits the Juventus’ options. Vlahovic’s departure would even be necessary to unblock the situation. During his passage to the Juventus, Kolo Muani played 22 games, scored 10 goals and delivered 3 assists, recently participating in the FIFA World Cup, where the Italian team was eliminated in the eighth final by Real Madrid.

The League of Professional Football (LFP) has changed the disciplinary scale in Ligue 1. The previous rule, which provided for automatic suspension after three yellow cards in less than ten games, was abandoned. The new rules stipulate that a player will be suspended after having accumulated five yellow cards, regardless of the game period. This change aims to simplify the understanding of sanctions and to standardize the monitoring of cartons. The impact of this new rule on clubs and players remains to be assessed.
