Dusan Vlahovic has made it clear that he wants to join AC Milan in the event of a Juventus departure this summer, according to the well-known journalist Gianni Balzarini.
Milan are evaluating the idea of signing another striker this summer, as Luka Jovic has left the club and Tammy Abraham has returned to Roma. Santiago Gimenez is currently alone, as such, and he could use a high-level teammate to alternate or play with.

Vlahovic, the Juventus striker, has been heavily linked with Milan ever since Max Allegri was announced as the new head coach. According to the well-known Juventus journalist Gianni Balzarini, there is good reason for this as the Serbian wants to join the Rossoneri.
“Here’s the problem, guys, he chose a team, Milan. He has chosen Milan. He doesn’t care about going to Fenerbahce, he doesn’t care about Saudi Arabia. The Premier League didn’t move as expected either, so at the moment, he’s stuck on the idea of leaving Juventus for Milan.
“Milan won’t go beyond €25m for the transfer fee, but Juve could accept this given the savings on the salary. The problem is that Ristic (agent) continues to ask for a lot of money. Milan’s offer is around 6-7 million plus bonuses, Ristic continues to ask for more.
“Maybe not the €12m he earns at Juventus, but let’s say that he will struggle to go below €10m,” he concluded.
It remains to be seen if Milan will deepen talks with Juventus and the striker’s entourage. The problem seems to be the salary, as despite the offer of €6-7m plus bonuses, the entourage seems to be holding out for at least €10m (he currently earns €12m at Juventus).
It’s crazy knowing his salary at Juve considering his contribution…
Definitely his salary shouldn’t be more than Leao…
It’s all rubbish, he wants to run down his contract, but there is the point that if he was so money hungry he could opt for the Saudi league and earn double what he is getting at Juve…
So I guess the jury is out on him and his real intentions
He will never get 8-9 or 10 million. He also not gonna join Milan
He is not that clinical so that earn 12M, if only we can get towering ST just like Giroud, not always scoring but scored important ones
We missed Pavlidis.
Now, Lucca and Osimhen comes to mind.
Even 4 or 5 this guy is not worth it
I believe if this business come through, juve more smarter than Milan. They want to save the money ( salary vlahovic become 12m on his final contract ) and then they sold him to Milan. 25m with resale clause 20% + salary 10m. Stupid Milan management… 😂😂
😂😂
A smart management team would never have paid Vlahovic 12m.
This guy is not a clinical finisher to be paid such amount. Milan needs to be wise about this
7 mil for Vlahovic is nuts. He has to prove himself with the numbers BEFORE you bump him up to 7mil. It doesn’t matter what Juve pay him. Start him at Origi money and make sure he doesn’t perform like Origi before increasing his salary.
A fiasco from Juve management in bringing this player with such a lucrative pay and Eur 70million price tag from beginning to end.
