Milan & Bayern Still Pursuing Vlahovic Amidst Juventus Renewal Uncertainty

Sport news

The upcoming summer transfer window is shaping up to be exceptionally active, largely due to a significant number of high-profile players set to become free agents in June. Dusan Vlahovic is at the center of one of the most compelling transfer sagas.

Transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio, speaking on Sky Sport and reported by MilanNews.it, highlighted a market influenced by an unusually large group of players with expiring contracts. He placed Vlahovic among the most sought-after free agents, alongside talents like Goretzka, Lewandowski, and Bernardo Silva.

“This year, there are some truly exceptional players whose contracts are expiring, meaning they can be signed without the need for negotiations with their current clubs,” Di Marzio observed. “Vlahovic is certainly one of the main talking points for this summer.”

Milan & Bayern Show Strong Interest in Vlahovic; Lewandowski Factor Creates Uncertainty

Despite weeks of reported progress, the Serbian striker’s contract situation at Juventus remains unresolved. If renewal talks were to falter, Di Marzio confirmed that AC Milan continues to hold significant interest, a sentiment that persisted from the previous summer. Manager Massimiliano Allegri’s long-standing admiration for Vlahovic is a key consideration for the Rossoneri.

Meanwhile, Bayern Munich is also closely monitoring the situation. The German giants are reportedly considering Vlahovic as a potential alternative to Harry Kane, especially if they decide to overhaul their attacking lineup. This interest is further amplified by the loan status of Nicolas Jackson, whose prohibitively expensive buyout clause makes a permanent move unlikely.

The potential availability of Robert Lewandowski adds another layer of complexity to the transfer landscape. While the Barcelona striker is reportedly in renewal discussions with his current club, any breakdown in those negotiations could present both Juventus and AC Milan with a remarkable opportunity to sign a proven goalscorer.

Di Marzio suggested that Juventus would be the more probable destination for Lewandowski should he become available, noting that AC Milan is cautious about accumulating too many players at the older end of the age spectrum, as they aim to rebuild their squad with a long-term vision.
