  "account": "Juventus has secured the signatures of two promising young talents, Bosnian teenager Kerim Alajbegovic and French striker Randal Kolo Muani, on Tuesday and Wednesday respectively. The 18-year-old Alajbegovic inked a five-year contract with the Serie A giants after a stellar season with Salzburg, during which he played in all four of Bosnia and Herzegovina's matches at the 2022 World Cup. Leverkusen, however, exercised a buy-back clause in the deal, enabling them to sell the winger to Juventus.\n\nIn a separate move, Juventus also brought back French forward Kolo Muani for a second spell at the club. Muani had previously enjoyed a successful loan stint at Juventus during the second half of the 2024-25 season. However, he struggled to make an impact at Tottenham Hotspur the previous term, managing only five goals in 41 appearances as the club narrowly escaped relegation from the Premier League. Muani joined Paris Saint-Germain for a reported 75 million euros plus bonuses in 2023 but failed to justify the fee, netting just 11 goals in 54 games for his new club.",
