Anglo are reinvesting everything they made from the sale of Tonali, and Juventus could do the same by selling Vlahovic.
Gianluca Oddenino, journalist for La Stampa, speaking to the microphones of calciomercato.it, broadcast on Twitch TVPLAY channel, is convinced that the sale of Vlahovic will allow Juventus to close several deals, as it was for Milan after the sale of Sandro Tonali.
“Milan are going strong, reinvesting what they earned from the sale of Tonali; they are making bets especially in midfield and there is definitely curiosity, because they will also change the way they play,” said the journalist interviewed. “I believe that, in addition to the Moneyball method, there is also great scouting work. From that point of view, Milan has shown that it knows how to find excellent players at good prices. And it has the courage to make mistakes, like last year with De Keteleare.”
“For Juventus, Vlahovic is the man who can unlock the market, just as it was for Milan with Tonali,” Oddenino continued. “Chelsea and PSG like the Serbian, but also watch out for Real Madrid, who need a centre forward to replace Benzema. The declared target is Mbappé, but Vlahovic can be an alternative… Vlahovic is a bit Tonali for Juve because his transfer can unlock the incoming market.”
“Juve are asking 80 million euros, and there is interest from Chelsea, PSG and Real Madrid who need a centre forward. But at the moment all three of these teams have other priorities. Ultimately, at Juve today there are few non-transferable players. Maybe only Rabiot, who just renewed, and Danilo, who was promoted to captain. “
Vlahovic useful to unblock the market: “Like Tonali for Milan “
“All the others have a price because the club has to recalibrate its plans. Giuntoli was clear in saying that there has to be a balance between sustainability and competitiveness because there was already a negative budget situation and it doesn’t help that we didn’t get into the Champions League,” the journalist continued.

“Juve are following Lukaku and Kessié even though Giuntoli’s favourite was Koopmeiners, armoured by Atalanta”. As explained many other times, the point is that Juve, before they can buy, must sell. “Vlahovic is still a strong player and one of the best in the squad but if an irrenounceable offer arrives the club is of the opinion to sit down and talk.”
“There is the negotiation with Lukaku, there was the Milinkovic-Savic target that has faded, as well as it is difficult Koopmeiners who is working on the renewal with Atalanta… For the rest, keep an eye on Kessié,” the journalist concluded.
