Juventus soccer market: the arrival of Luciano Spalletti could prove decisive in changing the skin of the Bianconeri of the future in a way that only a few weeks ago would have seemed unthinkable. The coming months could prove decisive, and not necessarily those leading up to June. Already by January possible revolutions are in sight, and so much revolves around the figure of Dusan Vlahovic.

The Serbian, never fully at ease with either the management of Thiago Motta or with Igor Tudor on the Bianconeri bench, is already showing important signs of awakening with Spalletti’s arrival at Juventus. The former national team coach could put him back at the center of the team’s project, at which point Vlahovic would hold not only his fate but also that of the Old Lady’s future market operations.

For months destined to leave Juventus on a zero-parameter basis at the end of the current season, a possible revival and his confirmation even in the coming months could induce Vlahovic to make a resounding reversal. Indeed, the hypothesis that a renewal will come for him should not be ruled out, but at the same time the Serbian could already start discussions with other clubs as early as January. With his contract expiring, he could in fact define a deal well in advance of the summer. Solution that, undoubtedly, the Bianconeri management would like if possible to avoid.

Contemporaneously, however, there is also the much more imminent Jonathan David grana to resolve. The former Lille striker continues to be unconvincing, so much so that his departure in January itself is possible. Despite months of wavering at least, there would be no problem finding his admirers even prestigious ones: among the main ones, Chelsea and Tottenham in the Premier League. Certainly, a confirmation of Vlahovic at high levels would allow Juventus to more calmly evaluate such an outgoing operation. Alternatively, they would have to return to the market to buy at least one more striker, or Spalletti’s blanket would suddenly become far too short.
