Allegri Left Disappointed as Vlahovic Stays at Juventus

Juventus tried to sell Dusan Vlahovic before his contract ends this season, with AC Milan showing strong interest. Despite Juve’s hopes, talks never progressed and he stayed. Coach Massimiliano Allegri reportedly wanted him until the deadline. Juventus must now manage his high wages while deciding between extending his deal or selling him in January.

As the summer transfer window closed, Dusan Vlahovic remained at Juventus despite strong interest from AC Milan. The striker, whose contract expires at the end of the season, was widely expected to leave as Juventus sought to avoid losing him on a free transfer. Vlahovic impressed during pre-season and early competitive fixtures, boosting hopes of finding a buyer, but negotiations failed to progress to completion.

Milan, searching for a reliable striker themselves, were the only serious contenders left in the market, yet talks never reached the decisive stage, leaving Juventus to retain the player. Financially, the outcome poses challenges for the Bianconeri, as Vlahovic is among their highest earners and selling him would have eased wage pressure. Reports suggest that AC Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri was eager to reunite with the Serbian forward, holding out hope until deadline day.

However, he has been forced to accept the club’s stance and move on with existing options. Looking ahead, Juventus face a crucial decision: extend Vlahovic’s contract to secure his long-term future or once again test the transfer market in January. His form on the pitch and the club’s financial priorities will ultimately shape what happens next.
