Arsenal Newsnow: Juventus are willing to listen to offers for Dusan Vlahovic from clubs like Arsenal, Chelsea, and Newcastle United this summer
Arsenal Newsnow: Fichajes reports that three Premier League clubs are considering making an offer for Dusan Vlahovic before the summer transfer market opens. The 23-year-old striker has drawn interest from Arsenal, Chelsea, and Newcastle United, and Juventus is willing to sell.
Some important players for Juventus might be moved before the summer transfer market opens. Although a fire sale is not anticipated, the club may need to sell some of its assets to make up for the loss of Champions League money.
More importantly, Massimiliano Allegri wants to construct the team in a manner that some of his current players aren’t suited for. One is Dusan Vlahovic, the team’s 23-year-old goal machine. He has failed to impress the management in his over a year with the club.
Arsenal Newsnow: What’s the matter?
Vlahovic has been the target of much scepticism leading up to the World Cup. He participated in Qatar despite injury concerns. However, he has not been regularly featured after the tournament due to fitness troubles. If Allegri’s club is going to succeed, they need their star striker to avoid injury for lengthy stretches.
So, Juve may consider offers from Premier League teams for Vlahovic and try to offload him. According to reports, Arsenal was preparing an offer to compete with Real Madrid for the striker. Although Mikel Arteta still has plenty of outstanding attacking options, the Serbian adds a new perspective.
Whether or if they make an offer depends heavily on whether or not they trade Eddie Nketian and/or Folarin Balogun this summer, as the article implies they may do. Across London at Chelsea, the situation is reversed since they lack a true centre striker while Arsenal has two.

What’s next for Dusan Vlahovic?
They spent a lot of money on attackers over the last two windows. But they failed to get a quality central striker. The impending departure of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Chelsea’s sole noteworthy striker, presents an opportunity to address a pressing need by pursuing Vlahovic.
Newcastle United is now mentioned as a contender. The Magpies are vying for a spot in the Champions League and need a top-tier striker with experience in Europe. Earlier rumours stated they could even be able to coerce Alexander Isak into trading with them for Vlahovic. But Eddie Howe would be reluctant to part ways with the Swede just yet.
To further use his abilities, Newcastle may explore bringing Vlahovic into their system for the next season. The Serbian looks set to leave Juventus. They will attempt to recoup some of their investment in the attacker by negotiating a substantial transfer price.
