Dusan Vlahovic continues to be a major subject of transfer speculation as the summer window approaches.
The Serbian striker has been at the heart of various transfer rumors, largely due to his strong performances on the pitch and the significant financial implications of his contract at Juventus.
Having been acquired from Fiorentina for a considerable fee, Vlahovic’s deal has placed a heavy burden on Juventus’ finances. His current contract, which includes substantial signing bonuses and an annual gross salary of approximately €23 million, has complicated the club’s financial planning.
Given these circumstances, Juventus are reportedly open to selling the 25-year-old forward before his current contract expires in 2026. According to sources from CaughtOffside, several high-profile clubs have expressed serious interest in securing Vlahovic’s services.
Premier League sides such as Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal, and Newcastle United are all monitoring his situation closely. Additionally, top European powerhouses like Bayern Munich and Barcelona are also said to be keeping an eye on the striker.
Despite his importance to the team, Juventus would consider offers in the region of €50 to €55 million for Vlahovic, making him a realistic target for interested clubs.
It’s also been suggested that Premier League teams are preparing offers of around €45 million. Vlahovic has found the net 14 times this season, reinforcing his reputation as a reliable goalscorer.
While Juventus’ newly appointed manager Igor Tudor sees Vlahovic as a crucial part of his tactical setup, the club is not ruling out a potential sale. They are also open to restarting contract extension discussions if a suitable agreement can be reached.
However, the underlying financial issues at Juventus mean that any significant offer could be seriously considered.
The club is keen to avoid the risk of losing Vlahovic on a free transfer when his contract eventually runs out. A sale could also provide the funds needed to stabilize their financial situation.
From the Premier League perspective, Arsenal’s interest in Vlahovic is longstanding. The Gunners have struggled with inconsistent performances from Gabriel Jesus, and Vlahovic could be a major upgrade in the striker role. Manchester United, despite signing Joshua Zirkzee recently, are still in need of a more proven forward.
Chelsea, too, need more attacking depth, and Vlahovic could offer strong competition to Nicolas Jackson.
Meanwhile, Newcastle United are watching closely, particularly with Alexander Isak being linked with a move away. Vlahovic could either complement Isak or act as a direct replacement should the Swede leave the club. All in all, the coming weeks will be crucial in determining Vlahovic’s future.
