Striker hailed as ‘better than Osimhen’ keen to join Man Utd; Talks ongoing with INEOS | OneFootball

Manchester United are reportedly in talks with Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic who is determined to make the move to Carrington.

The Red Devils are seeking a new centre-forward, but they have been snubbed on a couple of occasions already, as Liam Delap declared for Chelsea, while Viktor Gyokeres has seemingly given his preference to Arsenal, despite his old ties with Ruben Amorim.

Nevertheless, Man Utd certainly still enjoy a luring power thanks to their status as one of the biggest clubs on the planet, even in the absence of European football next season. This was evidenced by Matheus Cunha’s desire to join the Reds above all others, and perhaps Bryan Mbeumo would follow suit.

According to Football Transfers, United have now found a striker who is eager to join them in the shape of Vlahovic.

The Serbian’s representatives have reportedly held direct talks with MUFC officials, while Juventus have set their asking price at €45 million.

Moreover, sources in Italy have even mentioned lower figures, with some claiming that the Bianconeri are willing to offload the 25-year-old for €30 million. This wouldn’t come as a surprise given that the player’s contract will expire in 12 months, and his form hasn’t been inspiring in recent campaigns.

Can Vlahovic revive his career in the Premier League

Vlahovic has often ended his campaigns as Juve’s top goal-scorer, and it was no different this season as he bagged 15 goals in all competitions.

However, the former Fiorentina man hasn’t quite developped as initially hoped when Juventus splashed €80 million to secure his services in January 2022. At the time, he was dubbed the best striker in Serie A by Igor Tudor (his current manager at Juventus) who insisted that the Serbian is even stronger than Victor Osimhen.

Although this statement didn’t age well, Vlahovic is still young enough to resurrect his playing career, and many believe his characteristics would suit the Premier League.
