AC Milanare emerging as a serious contender in the search for a new striker this summer, joining Manchester United and PSG in the race. PSGare reportedly open to parting ways with Randal Kolo Muani, andthere’s even talk that Gonçalo Ramos could be on the move as well.
One forward high onPSG’s list isJuventus’ Dušan Vlahović. According toCaughtOffside, the club began monitoring the Serbian international earlier this year, and with his transfer fee now more reasonable, a summer deal is becoming more likely.
Arsenal and Manchester United are also keeping an eye on Vlahović, which could spark a bidding war. With just one year left on his contract, Juventus may be willing to negotiate a lower fee rather than risk losing him for free in 2026.

Former England manager Fabio Capello has encouraged Juventus to sign Joshua Zirkzee as a replacement for Vlahović, urging the club to move for the struggling Manchester United forward.
“Now, Dusan—what’s next? I mention departures because it seems Vlahović and Juventus are heading for a split,”Capello said (h/tThe Mirror).
“In that case, Juve would need a new striker, especially with KoloMuani’s future uncertain (he’s still owned by PSG). Who would I pick as the new number nine for the Bianconeri?I’d go straight for Joshua Zirkzee, who showed real class in Serie A.
“Thoughhe’s struggled at Manchester United, now might be the right time to bring the Dutchman back to Italy. Zirkzee would also cost less than the frequently linked Viktor Gyökeres.
“The Swede was a goal machine at Sporting, but at 27,he’s never faced a top-tier league like ours. In short, I believe the safer bet is the former Bologna man.”
GIVE ME SPORT reported this week that Manchester United couldbe offered the chance to sign Vlahović, who is keen on a move to England for the first time in his career. The striker has reportedly accepted that he is not part ofJuventus’ long-term plans and recognizes the need for a fresh start to secure consistent playing time.
The report also claims that Manchester United are firmly onVlahović’s radar. After tallying 20 goal contributions across all competitions during the 2024-25 season, heis said to be confident in his ability to adapt to the demands of the Premier League.
