Vlahovic contract talks reach final stage, little optimism he stays

Dusan Vlahovic and Juventus are headed for a decisive meeting this month, with the striker's contract set to expire and little optimism that he stays. Gianluca Di Marzio reports the talks are seen as a "final" attempt to resolve the 25-year-old's future, but the same recurring issue that has long stalled negotiations remains unresolved (1). If no agreement is reached, your highest-paid player walks for free, closing a turbulent chapter and freeing up significant wages for Thiago Motta's summer rebuild. The club's hierarchy has already assured Motta of spending power, and with Jonathan David tipped for an exit and Bremer attracting Bayern Munich interest, a busy window is taking shape regardless of Vlahovic's decision.
