Liverpool Reportedly Open Talks to Sign Juventus Striker Dušan Vlahović
His groin layoff plus an expiring contract create uncertainty over a January deal.
Overview
- Multiple outlets citing Fichajes say Liverpool have opened talks with Juventus over Dušan Vlahović.
- The reports claim Juventus would accept about €20m (£17m) and that Liverpool are prepared to match a salary near €12m per year.
- The pursuit is driven by Alexander Isak’s fracture, with Mohamed Salah on AFCON duty and Cody Gakpo injured reducing centre-forward options.
- Vlahović is currently out with a groin problem and is not expected back before mid-March, casting doubt on a January arrival’s short-term impact.
- He has six months left on his Juventus deal and could be available for free in the summer, while a separate push for Antoine Semenyo reportedly fell through as he opted for Manchester City.
