Notably, the Serbian forward is expected to leave Turin either in January or on a free transfer in the summer. Vlahovic has started the season in strong form, scoring four goals in five matches. The striker played a key role in Juve&rsquo;s dramatic 4-4 draw against Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League. <\/p><p>Despite his productivity, Vlahovic has only started twice this season, as competition from new signings Jonathan David and Lois Openda has pushed him down the pecking order. United manager Ruben Amorim sees Vlahovic as an ideal partner for Sesko, whose adaptation to the Premier League has been slow. For Vlahovic, a move to England could provide the perfect platform to revive his career. Having joined Juventus from Fiorentina in 2022 with high expectations, he has struggled to consistently deliver in Turin. <\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Juventus Looking To Sell Dusan Vlahovic<\/h2><p>According to Italian outlet <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gazzetta.it\/Calcio\/Serie-A\/Juventus\/26-09-2025\/la-juventus-vuole-cedere-vlahovic-a-gennaio-chelsea-e-united-ci-pensano.shtml\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Gazzetta dello Sport<\/a><\/em>, Juventus are willing to cash in on the 25-year-old in the winter window to avoid losing him for nothing, with his &pound;370,000-a-week salary weighing heavily on the club&rsquo;s finances.
