According to Fabrizio Romano, reports suggest that Juventus is looking to sell Serbian forward Dusan Vlahovic in the upcoming summer transfer window.
- Juventus plans to sell Vlahovic
- Bayern Munich leads interested clubs
- Vlahovic’s future depends on CL
What is the news?
Vlahovic joined Juventus in the January winter window of the 2021-22 season and had an impressive first half of the season. However, his form declined during the 2022-23 season, leading Juventus to be disappointed with his performance and considering selling him to boost their financial resources. It is believed that the club is open to offers between 60 and 70 million euros for Vlahovic.
Who are interested?
Numerous clubs have shown interest in signing Vlahovic, with Bayern Munich reportedly leading the race. The German club faced a striker shortage during the 2022-23 campaign after selling Robert Lewandowski to FC Barcelona last summer. Thomas Tuchel, who previously attempted to sign Vlahovic while managing Chelsea, holds admiration for the Serbian forward.
The backstory
The future of Vlahovic will largely depend on whether Juventus qualifies for the next season’s Champions League. The club has received a 10-point deduction for breaching transfer fee regulations, but they have appealed against this penalty. If the deduction is revoked, Juventus will secure a spot in the Champions League for the upcoming season.
