Dušan Vlahović wants out of Turin, and he’s apparently decided where he wants to land. The Juventus striker has made a direct approach to Barcelona about joining the Catalan club on a free transfer, positioning himself as a potential solution to their attacking needs heading into next season.
How we got here
Barcelona first made contact with Vlahović’s representatives back in December 2025, initiating preliminary conversations about what a deal might look like once his Juventus contract expired.
That contract runs through June 2026, and extension talks between Vlahović and the Old Lady have stalled out completely. No renewal is anticipated at this point.
By May 2026, Vlahović was being offered to both Barcelona and Real Madrid as a potential signing. But Vlahović apparently has a preference. Rather than waiting for clubs to come calling, the Serbian forward took the initiative and approached Barcelona directly.
