Chelsea are actively monitoring Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic as they plan their summer transfer strategy.
Blues Join Tottenham in Race for Free Agent Dusan Vlahovic
The Serbia international, whose contract expires at the end of the season, appears set to depart Turin, putting several top clubs on alert.
The Blues, along with London rivals Tottenham Hotspur, are reportedly receiving regular updates on the 24-year-old’s situation.
Vlahovic is said to be attracted by the prospect of a move to the Premier League, potentially opening the door for a free transfer scramble this summer.
This interest follows a crucial weekend for Chelsea, who secured a 3-1 Premier League victory over ten-man Crystal Palace despite the absence of star Cole Palmer.
Replacements stepped up, with goals from Estevao, Joao Pedro, and a Enzo Fernandez penalty sealing the win. The result lifts Chelsea to fifth place as they prepare for a midweek Champions League clash with Napoli.
Vlahovic’s potential availability presents a significant opportunity. Since his high-profile move from Fiorentina to Juventus in 2022, he has scored 54 goals in 162 appearances.
While AC Milan also shows strong interest, the player’s openness to England could give Premier League suitors an advantage.
Chelsea’s pursuit signals a continued focus on bolstering their attacking options.
Securing a proven striker of Vlahovic’s calibre on a free transfer would represent a major coup, but they face direct competition from Tottenham and Italian giants for his signature.
The coming months will reveal if the Blues can turn their longstanding interest into a concrete deal for the prolific Serbian forward.
