Juventus ready to listen to offers for Vlahovic in January as Zirkzee talks continue | OneFootball

Juventus are ready to listen to offers for Dusan Vlahovic this month while talks for Joshua Zirkzee and Randal Kolo Muani continue.

Juventus are willing to listen to offers for Vlahovic in the January transfer window, according to a report from Gazzetta dello Sport.

The pink paper claims that Vlahovic’s departure this month or at the end of the season appears inevitable. The club and the striker’s agents are struggling to reach an agreement on a new contract beyond 2026.

Vlahovic is unwilling to spread his €12m-a-year salary onto a longer deal, so Juventus will look for suitors in the coming weeks to avoid losing him on a free transfer next year.

According to Gazzetta, Juventus are open to listening to offers for Vlahovic this month and have already identified two possible replacements: Manchester United’s Zirkzee and PSG’s Kolo Muani.

Both strikers are in similar situations at their clubs. They are struggling for playing time and both Manchester United and PSG are ready to discuss loan moves as long as Juventus include an obligation to buy and pay part of their salary until the end of the season.

Juventus may sign a new striker regardless of Vlahovic’s stay in Turin, given that a fresh injury setback for Arkadiusz Milik will force the Poland international on the sidelines for longer than expected.
