Juventus Weigh January Sale of Dušan Vlahović With Man United, Chelsea Interest
Juventus are evaluating a winter deal to ease their wage bill given a 2026 contract that is unlikely to be extended.
Overview
- Multiple Italian reports reiterated on September 29 that Juventus are actively considering a January exit for the striker, with no formal bids reported yet.
- Manchester United and Chelsea are tracking the situation, while Bayern Munich are gathering information according to reporter Christian Falk.
- Vlahović’s deal runs to 2026 and club figures are seen as doubtful about an extension without a significant pay cut the player is not expected to accept.
- The forward earns about €12 million per season, and a mid-season sale could save half a year of salary and add roughly €10–15 million to the balance sheet, per Gazzetta reports cited by OneFootball.
- Juventus’ calculus reflects recent spending on Jonathan David and Loïs Openda and Vlahović’s current impact-sub role despite four goals in six appearances this season.
