New Juventus CEO Giovanni Carnevali is attempting to keep Dusan Vlahovic at the club, with the striker set to become a free agent in 12 days and ongoing negotiations around his future status unresolved.
Juventus have failed in previous attempts to persuade him to commit his future to the club, and that situation is believed to be one of the reasons [they replaced Damien Comolli](https://talkjuve.com/2026/06/17/how-jonathan-david-played-a-role-in-vlahovic-decision-to-turn-down-new-juventus-deal/). However, they still have a short period to convince the Serbian forward to remain, and they are determined to use it, as he has not yet agreed to join another team, leaving his future open at this stage, with uncertainty continuing over his next decision at present.
Contract Situation
------------------
DV9 remains one of the leading strikers in Europe and is regarded as the strongest forward in the Juventus squad, with Luciano Spalletti keen to retain him in Turin and keep him central to the team project within the squad structure overall.
Although Juventus signed Jonathan David last summer to replace him, Vlahovic has shown himself to be a more effective striker and has displaced the struggling Canadian when available for selection consistently this season.
Renewed Negotiations
--------------------
Juventus recognise the quality he brings and would like him to stay at the club, which is why [Calciomercato](https://www.calciomercato.com/liste/juventus-vlahovic-la-nuova-proposta-una-richiesta-al-padre-milos-e-l-idea-su-durata-e-ingaggio/bltc3bfccc0468399ad#cs6706e0f52340b012) reports that Carnevali has scheduled a fresh meeting to discuss terms with his representatives and assess all options in ongoing discussions further ahead of the next stage of the talks process.
Vlahovic is open to remaining at the club, and staying in Turin has always been his preferred option, so his representatives are willing to continue talks with Juventus to find a solution, which could be reached during their next scheduled meeting in the process shortly as both sides look to maintain dialogue moving forward together in discussions.
