❌ David not enough: Juve want Osimhen or Kolo, Vlahovic stalls 🤑 | OneFootball

The attack puzzle continues to be a hot topic at Juventus. The arrival of Jonathan David has provided an initial piece, but the problem is far from solved.

Weighing heavily on the club's finances is Dusan Vlahovic's enormous salary: from July 1st, the Serbian earns a whopping 12 million euros net per season. An unsustainable figure that Juve can no longer afford.

The situation is clear: Vlahovic is out of the technical project, and his stay is paralyzing the incoming market. A breakthrough is needed, and it is needed quickly.

🆕 NAMES FOR THE POST-VLAHOVIC ERA

At the top of the Bianconeri's dream list remains Victor Osimhen. The Nigerian striker from Napoli, returning from a loan at Galatasaray, is on the market, but there is a huge obstacle: the 75 million euro clause does not apply to Italian clubs, and convincing De Laurentiis to negotiate has always been a near-impossible feat.

The most concrete alternative leads to Randal Kolo Muani. The Frenchman left a great impression during his loan at Juventus, but here too the path is uphill: PSG has already rejected the first offer for a loan with an option to buy. Everything is at a standstill, everything is blocked.

❌ VLAHOVIC BLOCKS EVERYTHING

The key to unlocking this gridlock has only one name: Dusan Vlahovic. Juventus has no more time to waste. The Serbian aims to stay until the contract expires in 2026 and then leave on a free transfer. But Juve cannot afford to wait.

According to Tuttosport, Comolli is evaluating all possible options. A decisive meeting with the player's agent, Darko Ristic, is scheduled for next week. It will be the face-to-face of truth.

💡 TWO POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS

Every scenario is on the table. There is even talk of a sensational consensual termination of the contract with a substantial severance package. Alternatively, a one-year bridge renewal could be considered to spread the salary and allow Vlahovic to find a new team on loan, playing consistently.

Juventus has reached a crossroads: either Vlahovic packs his bags, or the market remains blocked. The feeling is that this time, the break might truly be definitive.
