Juventus, Dusan Vlahovic getting closer to farewell

The error from 11 meters left even more of a mark

.

He was dreaming of a decidedly different night. After his goal against Cagliari in the league, Vlahovic was ready to celebrate against Empoli in the Coppa Italia as well. Sent on the field from the first minute, along with Kolo Muani, the Serbian struggled mightily and, in the penalty lottery, shot the first Juventus penalty into the stars.

Walking off the field, his face dark and the expression of someone who no longer feels comfortable with everything. The feeling è that the class 2000 striker is close to the end of his adventure in Turin with the Juventus jersey. The current season, complicit with the, latest, many benches, is proving complicated.

His contract, expiring in June 2026, guarantees him a princely salary (12 million euros net per season). A lot, a lot for the Serbian who, by now, is not è considered the Bianconeri's first choice of attack. Thiago Motta has other ideas. Vlahovic è important but you canò play without him.

At this point, more than likely a farewell at the end of the current season. The Bianconeri society cannot afford to lose him at zero and renewal does not seem a viable option. It remains to be seen who will step up for Vlahovic. At his best, the Bianconeri striker è still one of the best around.
