I think he's the most unlucky player this season. He has not been selected by the coach even after his performance on loan.
The British Tribune reported on the 3rd (Korea Standard Time) 'Rendal Colomuani's future at Juventus has become uncertain'
Tribuna 'Colo Muani was the favorite player of coach Thiago Motta. However, Mota was fired recently after failing to meet expectations. The situation worsened for Colomuani as coach Igor was newly appointed and sat on the bench. The new coach preferred Dushan Vlahovic. The possibility of extending the lease, which used to be a realistic option, is now looking low. Juventus even considered a full transfer, but now they are not sure.

Born in 1998, striker Colo Muani was one of the outstanding strikers in Europe for Frankfurt until 2023. Having attracted tremendous attention for his performance at the time, he left Frankfurt in the summer of 2023 and joined PSG. Considering the performance at the time, Colomuani's transfer was natural. As a member of Frankfurt, he scored 23 goals and 14 assists in the 2022-2023 season, and was considered one of the best strikers in the Bundesliga. As a member of the French national team, he even took the stage in the final of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
Heading to PSG, I got more expectations. Along with Kylian Mbappe, Usman Dembele and Gonzalo Hamus, he recorded a transfer fee of 90 million euros (about 144 billion won) with the evaluation that he would be in charge of the PSG offense. However, Colomuani's life at PSG is not smooth. Since the first season, many games have been played on the bench, behind Mbappe, Dembele, and Hamus. He started only 13 league games.
This season has been even worse. He has only started two of his 10 league appearances, and most of them have been benched in the European Champions League. Despite Hamus' injury, Luis Enrique also preferred the tactic of using Lee Kang-in and Marco Asensio as fake No. 9 instead of using Colomuani as the front line, and immediately put Hamus on the front line when Hamus returned. Colomuani hasn't even had a short chance since Hamus returned. Just before leaving PSG, Colomuani's previous five games lasted only 37 minutes.

In the winter transfer window, Colomuani took on a new challenge. Several teams showed interest in the possibility of a loan, but it was Juventus that held Colomuani's hand. Colomuani left Juventus on loan without a full transfer option.
The start was a success. Colomuani, who opened the scoring against Napoli immediately after his debut, recovered his skills during his time in Frankfurt, scoring five goals in his first three games for Juventus. Since then, he has consistently maintained his good performance and has been active with four goals and two assists in seven games during the month of February. Colomuani, who was recognized for his performance, jumped to the core of Juventus by winning the Serie A Player of the Month Award.

But the problem broke down. Mota, who wanted Colomuani, was replaced for poor performance, changing the atmosphere. Tudor, who was newly appointed, immediately excluded Colomuani from the starting line-up from the first game. Colomuani, who was listed on the replacement list, watched his team win 1-0 over Genoa on the 30th of last month only on the bench.
Along with the change of manager, Colomuani's chances of staying at Juventus have also dropped significantly, and he faces a difficult time again this season. If he does not receive a chance under Tudor, the situation surrounding Colomuani in the upcoming summer transfer market is expected to be particularly cold.
