Spalletti wants Kolo Muani as part of his three-man striking department
Juventus head coach Luciano Spalletti has a clear vision for his attacking department ahead of next season, and his plan includes Randal Kolo Muani.
This season, the centre-forward role has been the Bianconeri’s biggest Achilles Heel, especially with Dusan Vlahovic spending four months on the sidelines and Arkadiusz Milik only making a couple of appearances over the past two campaigns.
Jonathan David and Lois Openda were brought to add goals to the side. However, the Canadian has been struggling for consistency, while the Belgian has been enduring an utterly disastrous campaign.
Therefore, Damien Comolli and Co. will certainly address Juve’s attacking woes in the summer, especially after failing to bolster the squad in January, something Spalletti wasn’t pleased about, as he reminded us in the aftermath of Saturday’s win over Lecce.
