Dusan Vlahović is currently under contract with Juventus until June 30, 2026. While negotiations about extending this agreement are ongoing, it remains uncertain whether both parties will reach a consensus.
Should these talks fail, the 26-year-old striker could secure a free transfer during the upcoming summer transfer window, a scenario likely to grab the attention of top clubs across Europe. The Serbian star has recently been linked with prominent clubs such as Arsenal, FC Barcelona, and AC Milan. According to the British outlet “Football Insider,” Chelsea has also entered the race to land Vlahović.
The Blues are closely observing the situation of the prolific forward, identifying him as a potential replacement for Liam Delap. The Stamford Bridge hierarchy is keen on enhancing their attacking line for the next season, and the 26-year-old remains one of their primary targets.
Since joining the Turin-based club in January 2022 from Fiorentina for a fee exceeding 85 million euros, the 41-time capped Serbia international has had an impressive tenure. He has made 167 appearances for Juventus, netting 66 goals and providing 16 assists. With “Transfermarkt” valuing the striker at approximately 35 million euros, the prospect of signing him without a transfer fee is an exceptional opportunity for Chelsea.
