Aston Villa have reportedly been offered the chance to sign Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic in a cut-price deal.
TEAMtalk reports that Juve are prepared to sell Vlahovic at around £12.9m (€15m) as they look to avoid losing him for free next year. The Serb's contract expires at the end of next season and he'll be free to speak to clubs from abroad in January 2026.
Vlahovic was initially valued at around £26m (€30m), but his contract situation and high wages have led the Old Lady to lower their asking price. The Serie A giants are focused on signing Randal Kolo Muani on a permanent deal after he spent the second half of last season on loan at the Allianz Stadium.

Vlahovic has struggled to live up to expectations since arriving in Turin in January 2022. He was one of Europe's most highly-regarded marksmen at former club Fiorentina, finding the net 49 times in 108 games.
The 25-year-old still managed a solid record of 10 goals and four assists in 29 Serie A games last season, but not the type of form you'd associate with a player earning a hefty £315,000 per week (per Capology).

Vlahovic's wages are proving an issue for clubs interested in signing him, but Villa are among those keeping tabs. Unai Emery wants more firepower at Villa Park, and a move for the Serb could ignite should Manchester United pounce for £60m-rated Ollie Watkins.
The Villans face competition from Nottingham Forest, while AC Milan is thought to be an option if the player desires to stay in Italy. He's long been linked with a Premier League transfer, even as far back as three years ago, when he chose Juve over the likes of Arsenal and United.
