Jonathan David remaining at Juventus is one of the main reasons the Bianconeri cannot bring Dusan Vlahovic back to their squad this summer.
The Serbian left the club as a free agent at the end of his contract in June, but he still does not have a new team. He has been linked with a possible return to Juventus during this transfer window.
Juventus face striker decision over David and Vlahovic
Juve could consider making another move for Vlahovic because Luciano Spalletti really likes working with the Serbian striker. However, there are also other attacking options that the Bianconeri want to add to their squad this summer.
They have allowed Lois Openda to leave on loan and have only agreed a deal to sign Randal Kolo Muani, meaning they could still need another attacker. The club are continuing to assess their options as they prepare for the new campaign.
According to Football Italia, if David does not leave Juventus, the Bianconeri would not be able to sign another striker, including a possible return for Vlahovic. The club views David as a player who needs to perform well for the team this season if he remains.
The Canadian striker is determined to improve and prove his doubters wrong after a disappointing first season in Turin. He will be hoping to show his quality and justify the faith Juventus have placed in him.
Juventus hope for David transfer interest
In the coming weeks, Juventus will hope that clubs emerge with interest in David and make an offer to sign him this summer. A departure would give the Bianconeri more flexibility as they look to strengthen their attack.
The situation surrounding David and Vlahovic remains important for Juventus’ transfer plans. The club must decide whether to continue with David or make room for another striker option before the window closes.
With Spalletti wanting attacking reinforcements and Vlahovic still available, Juventus will continue monitoring developments. However, David’s future could determine whether they are able to complete another move in the forward position.
