Juventus could end contract of Man Utd transfer target Dusan Vlahovic.
United on Alert as Juve Consider Vlahovic Exit
Manchester United might be handed a surprise boost in their search for a new striker. Reportedly, Juventus are ready to end Dusan Vlahovic’s contract.
The forward earns a huge £20m a year. He is a target for the Red Devils for this summer window. The Serie A side is keen to cut their wage bill. As per Gianluca Di Marzio, Juve are considering ripping up Vlahovic’s deal to free up funds.
This could see the forward available on a free transfer. He will be a great option for a striker who’s bagged 43 goals in 104 Serie A games. Man Utd are keeping a close eye on the situation. Their scouts are reportedly planning talks in the coming days.
Striker Fits United’s Plan for a Smart Rebuild
Ruben Amorim’s Man Utd are working under tight financial limits this summer. This comes following a poor 15th-place finish last season. They also suffered a Europa League final loss to Tottenham.
The club is actively looking for cost-effective signings to help rebuild the squad without blowing their budget. Although, the club has paid big money to sign Matheus Cunha. Also, they are currently in advanced talks for Bryan Mbeumo. Now, the club is also considering cheaper options such as Callum Wilson, Jamie Vardy, and Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
If Vlahovic becomes available, he would go straight to number one. He brings physical presence, a proven scoring record, and experience at the highest level. These are the qualities United are looking to add.
Meanwhile, Arsenal are reportedly keeping tabs as well. But, Utd need a senior forward and Juventus’ ready to negotiate, so the Red Devils could be in pole position. A cut-price or free transfer for Vlahovic would be a massive win for Amorim as he aims to rebuild with smarter, sharper signings.
