Juventus seem to have decided they want to sacrifice Dusan Vlahovic. Based on the striker’s exit the market will then be set up
Carlo Laudisa, journalist for the Gazzetta dello Sport, spoke to the microphones of calciomercato.it, broadcast on Twitch TVPLAY channel, to talk about the possible move of Vlahovic to Chelsea.
Laudisa announced that Chelsea may have met with the Bianconeri management in London to get information on Vlahovic: Juve would like to collect 80 million. For the journalist, the future of the Serbian striker will be crucial in order to understand what Juve’s market approach will be. Apparently, the first club to make a move was Atletico Madrid, who offered Alvaro Morata as a quid pro quo, but the Bianconeri’s response was negative.
“The Juventus sporting director went to London to listen to Chelsea for Vlahovic: there is attention on him,” Laudisia revealed. “He is among the most prominent youngsters in Europe and Juve is alert to all concrete possibilities of a transfer. Vlahovic has to be sacrificed for an economic issue: without Europe, Juve cannot keep him. Today he is valued at 80 million, and that is the main thing. Next year he could be devalued. “
Vlahovic to be sacrificed: “Chelsea and Bayern Munich on Vlahovic”
For the journalist, apart from Chelsea on Vlahovic, Bayern Munich could still move. “Yes, for Vlahovic you have to watch out for Bayern Munich, because they play in the cups. The Serbian is among the bombers the Bavarians like. Even after a difficult season, his market value has not plummeted because there is interest around him and his potential. “
‘Basically it is still early days for Vlahovic, but remember that Bayern Munich took De Ligt from Juventus and so the relationship between the two clubs could be a factor,’ the interviewee continued.
The other outgoing deals, however, all seem to be stalled. “Unfortunately for Juve, Tottenham failed the Champions League and therefore the mandatory redemption for Kulusevski was not triggered. Tottenham want a discount now. Without a discount, they will not take him’.
The contacts with Chelsea, who are on the hunt for a new number 9 to give to Pochettino, have arisen precisely because Giovanni Manna has also flown to London to broach the subject of Dejan Kulusevski with Tottenham.
Finally, the journalist also spoke about the renewals still in the balance. “If Rabiot was convinced to sign, Juventus would gladly keep him. It’s easy for him to look around as well and now he has the ball in his hands. “
