Juventus have now come to the realisation that their chances of offloading Dusan Vlahovic this summer have vastly shrunk.
The Bianconeri have already brought in a replacement in the shape of Jonathan David who joined the club as a free agent in July. The Canadian has already impressed on his Serie A debut, breaking the deadlock in the 2-0 win over Parma.
Moreover, Juve are still keen to bring Randal Kolo Muani back to Turin, and they’re reportedly very close to finalising their agreement with Paris Saint-Germain.
Therefore, Vlahovic’s services are no longer required, but getting rid of him and his hefty salary has been a major ordeal for the management.
Dusan Vlahovic rejects Milan approach
In recent days, Milan rekindled their interest in the Serbian bomber. After missing out on several other options (like Boniface, Hojlund and Harder), the Rossoneri revisited the Vlahovic track. After all, the 25-year-old has been on Max Allegri’s wishlist from the get-go, with the Livorno native keen to reunite with his former Juventus pupil.
But according to Sky Sport Italia journalist Gianluca Di Marzio (via TuttoJuve), Vlahovic has no desire to sign for the Diavolo.
As the transfer market insider explains, the former Fiorentina star is happy to stay at Continassa and collect his paycheck until his contract expires at the end of the season.
Juventus must come to terms with Vlahovic’s stay
La Gazzetta dello Sport (via IlBianconero) adds that Juventus have now understood that offloading Vlahovic has become an increasingly unlikely scenario.
Therefore, Damien Comolli and Co. have succumbed to the situation. They have realised that the player and his yearly net salary of €12 million aren’t going anywhere, and they must now conduct their remaining transfer business based on this reality.
It remains to be seen how this situation will affect the club’s plans in the final days of the summer transfer session.
In addition to Kolo Muani, Juventus are hoping to sign Lille winger Edon Zhegrova, and potentially a new midfielder.

Since Vlahovich has f!@#ed us, i think the sensible thing is not to buy Kolo, even thoigh i really want him at our club
Out of this sh.i from the team! NOW! NO first team, no training, no bench, NO PRIMAVERA!
The club keeps playing softball against DV9, what can u expect?
Drop him to the next generation and always play him at the stoppage time and sub him after 1 minute. Everyone jeers at him and calls him Gypsy.
How’s that?
Hi is not a top player but still way better than rubbish Sesko.
If Vlahovic does NOT want to leave, Juventus will ban him from training EVERYWHERE.
Juventus is the boss, Juventus pays him, he MUST do what Juventus’ management tells him to do.(hímnemű)
Vlahovic can’t train ANYWHERE until he leaves
Haha! He scores one goal stares at that crowd like he is somebody and thinks he is going to stay now. I agree with all of the above, except buying Kolo Muani. Sometimes you cannot worry about money so much, especially when you are Juventus. I would buy Kolo Muani and start him every game benching Vlahovic to watch if being called up for the game at all. If he is in it for soccer he will leave in January to play again. If he is fine sitting on the bench he is a lazy greedy piece of shit who should never see the pitch for any team again. I know if I was benched and I really wanted to play I would get the hint and leave to play the game. I would kick him to the dirt and rub his face in it. Fuck your 12mil douche bag.
