The future of Dusan Vlahovic at Juventus seems to be drawing to a close, with the Serbian striker likely to part ways with the Bianconeri at the end of the current season. According to recent reports, the 2024-2025 campaign may well be Vlahovic’s last in the famous black and white stripes.
Juventus’ plan, as outlined by Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport, is to offload the 25-year-old forward in the upcoming summer transfer window. This decision comes after failed negotiations to reduce Vlahovic’s substantial €12 million annual salary, which he began earning this season.
The club’s stance reflects a broader shift in Juventus’ financial strategy, as they aim to streamline their wage structure and adapt to new economic realities in European football. Vlahovic, who joined Juventus in January 2022 for a significant fee, has struggled to consistently meet the lofty expectations set for him upon his arrival from Fiorentina.
While Vlahovic has shown flashes of brilliance during his time in Turin, his hefty wage packet has become increasingly difficult for Juventus to justify, especially given the club’s recent focus on fiscal responsibility and youth development.
As the season progresses, all eyes will be on Vlahovic’s performances and any potential suitors that may emerge for the Serbian international. For now, it appears that both player and club are heading towards an amicable, if somewhat premature, parting of ways come the end of the season.
