Filip Kostic is expected to leave Juventus this summer when his contract expires in the coming days, with Fiorentina reportedly interested in signing the Serbian winger ahead of next season.
Kostic arrived in Turin with high expectations, but apart from his first campaign at the club, he struggled to establish himself as a regular starter in the Juventus team. Over time, his role within the squad diminished, eventually leading to a loan spell away from the Bianconeri as the club reshaped its plans.
Although he was given opportunities under Luciano Spalletti and managed to deliver some encouraging performances, they were not enough to convince the manager that he should remain an important part of the squad moving forward. Juventus have therefore decided not to extend his contract beyond the current season.
Fiorentina Show Serious Interest
--------------------------------
The winger could now remain in Serie A, with Fiorentina reportedly monitoring his situation closely as they prepare for an important summer rebuild ahead of the new campaign.
La Viola endured a difficult season and narrowly avoided relegation, leading the club to identify several areas of the squad that require improvement. Kostic is viewed as a player capable of adding experience, quality and attacking depth to their side as they attempt to strengthen for next season.
According to [Tuttosport](https://www.tuttosport.com/news/calcio/calciomercato/2026/06/17-149254541/fiorentina_summit_per_kean_ma_si_punta_anche_a_kostic_c_gaetano_per_la_regia_dellatalanta), Fiorentina’s interest in signing the Serbian is genuine, and the player himself is also believed to be keen on continuing his career in Italy rather than seeking a move elsewhere in Europe.
Juventus Ready to Move On
-------------------------
Juventus no longer see Kostic as part of their long-term plans, which explains their decision to allow his contract to expire without offering renewed terms.
Despite arriving with strong expectations, the winger was unable to consistently produce the performances required to cement his place in the team over an extended period. Competition within the squad and tactical changes also limited his opportunities to establish himself as a key figure in Turin.
As his Juventus career approaches its conclusion, many supporters may feel that he never fully made the impact expected when he first arrived at the club. Attention will now turn to whether Fiorentina can complete a deal and offer him a fresh opportunity in Serie A next season.
