Dusan Vlahovic has offered his services to Barcelona as a free agent, it’s reported, after rejecting Juventus and Besiktas proposals, but they’d prefer Julian Alvarez or Harry Kane.
The Blaugrana need a new star centre-forward after releasing Robert Lewandowski, who in turn has now agreed a free transfer to join the Chicago Fire.
Vlahovic eager for Barcelona chance
According to Diario AS, Vlahovic and his representatives contacted Barcelona to put themselves forward was a valid replacement, even if it didn’t mean a regular starting spot.
The Serbian will be a free agent from July 1, having allowed his Juventus contract to run down and so far rejected their offers of an extension at a lower salary.
He had been expecting many clubs around Europe to make their own proposals, but the only one to truly step forward has been Vincenzo Italiano’s Besiktas.
Vlahovic remains unconvinced and is seeking a bigger club, which is why he is alerting Barcelona to his availability.
However, the Nou Camp giants are not sure about his credentials and recent injuries.
Their first choice is Julian Alvarez, but Atletico Madrid have slammed the door shut on their Liga rivals, promising to denounce them to FIFA.
Another candidate emerging today is England international Kane, who has been banging in goals at Bayern Munich.
Vlahovic is only 26 years old and Juventus paid over €85m to buy him from Fiorentina in January 2022.
