Manchester United have reportedly opened talks over a potential free transfer move for Juventus striker Dušan Vlahović, as the Serbian international prepares to leave the Italian giants this summer following the breakdown of contract negotiations.
According to multiple reports in the European press, Vlahović is set to depart Juventus on a Bosman deal when his contract expires at the end of June, bringing an end to a four-and-a-half-year spell in Turin.
Talks between the player’s representatives and the Serie A club are understood to have collapsed after the two sides failed to reach an agreement over salary and contract structure, with a significant gap remaining between Juventus’ offer and the striker’s demands.
The striker, who joined Juventus in a high-profile €70m move from Fiorentina in 2022, is now expected to attract widespread interest across Europe. Manchester United are among several Premier League clubs monitoring the situation closely, with Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United also reportedly making contact over a possible free transfer.
Manchester United’s interest comes as the club continues to assess options to strengthen its attacking line ahead of the new season, with the club seeking more consistency in front of goal. Sources suggest preliminary discussions have taken place with Vlahović’s representatives, although no formal agreement is yet believed to be in place.
Vlahović’s potential availability on a free transfer has made him one of the most sought-after forwards of the summer window.
Despite a mixed final season in Italy, during which injuries and form issues disrupted his rhythm, he still managed double-figure goal contributions, maintaining his reputation as a physically dominant and technically strong centre-forward.
Juventus, meanwhile, are already exploring replacements for the departing striker, with reports in Italy linking them to several forward options across Europe.
For Manchester United, any move would likely depend on wage structure negotiations and competition from rival clubs, with the striker’s free-agent status expected to trigger a significant bidding war in the coming weeks.
As the transfer window approaches, Vlahović’s future is set to be one of the key storylines shaping the early summer market
