Manchester United could allegedly sign Juventus forward Dusan Vlahovic during this summer's transfer window for as little as £25m.

Manchester United could reportedly make a move for Juventus forward Dusan Vlahovic during this summer's transfer window.

The 25-year-old has entered the final 18 months of his contract at Juventus, and there is currently a host of speculation surrounding his future, with Arsenal and Aston Villa believed to be considering making a move for him at the end of the season.

Arsenal were heavily linked with Vlahovic in January 2022, but the striker ultimately made the switch to the Old Lady from Fiorentina, and he has represented his current side on 135 occasions, scoring 55 goals and registering 11 assists in the process.

This season, the Serbia international has 14 goals and two assists in 34 appearances for Juventus, including nine goals and one assist in Serie A, but his long-term future in Turin is unclear.

According to GIVEMESPORT, Vlahovic has emerged as a genuine option for Man United this summer, with the Red Devils being informed that he may be available for a cut-price fee.

Man United 'considering summer move for Vlahovic'

The report claims that Juventus have been unable to sign the forward to a new contract despite their best efforts, and the Italian giants are now willing to let him leave ahead of the 2025-26 campaign.

It is claimed that an offer as low as £25m could be enough to sign Vlahovic, as Juventus are not prepared to let him enter the final 12 months of his contract and then watch him potentially leave on a free transfer.

Man United would be far from the only club in for Vlahovic at the end of the season, with Arsenal and Villa, as mentioned, both said to be keen, while Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United are said to be monitoring the situation.

Would Vlahovic be a good signing for Man United?

Vlahovic's performances for Fiorentina made him one of the most in-demand strikers in world football, and he left the Purples with a record of 49 goals and eight assists in 108 appearances in all competitions.

It would be fair to say that the striker has had his problems at Juventus, but he has still managed 55 goals and 11 assists in 135 appearances, while his overall Serie A record is 86 goals and 14 assists in 195 appearances.

It is obvious that Man United need a striker this summer due to the ongoing struggles of Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee, and one of those is likely to leave during the upcoming market.

Newcastle United's Alexander Isak is likely to be out of reach, and with a real lack of top-drawer centre-forwards currently available, a move for Vlahovic makes perfect sense for Man United, especially if he could be signed for a bargain £25m.
