Manchester United are interested in signing the Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic during the January transfer window.
The Serbian International has been linked with a move away from Italy in recent months, and Chelsea are keen on securing his signature as well. According to a report from Italian publication Gazzetta, Juventus are looking to get rid of the player so that they can reduce their wage bill. The Serbian earns €12 million per season.
Man United need Dusan Vlahovic
It will be interesting to see if Manchester United can secure an agreement to sign the player. They could use another quality striker, and Vlahovic could be the ideal acquisition. He has the physicality to thrive in the Premier League, and he could form a lethal partnership with Benjamin Sesko. The Slovenian has not been able to hit the ground running in the Premier League, and he needs more support in the attack.
Vlahovic has proven himself in Italy over the years, and he has the quality to do well in England. The opportunity to move to the Premier League will be exciting for him. He has been described as a “champion” recently.
Where will Vlahovic end up?
Both Manchester United and Chelsea have the financial muscle to get the deal across the line, and his wages should not be a problem for them either. It will be interesting to see what the player decides. The two clubs are yet to follow up on their interest with an official proposal.
Chelsea have already invested in two quality strikers earlier this summer, and they might not be able to offer the Serbian regular gametime. The move to Manchester United might make a lot more sense for the player.
