Juventus Plot Massive Summer Revolution

Dusan Vlahovic’s decision not to extend his contract with Juventus has significantly reshaped the club’s transfer plans.

While changes in the attacking department were already expected this summer, the Serbian striker’s impending departure has made reinforcements an even greater priority.

According to Corriere dello Sport, head coach Luciano Spalletti has identified the signing of at least two new forwards as essential to compensate for Vlahovic’s exit and increase the team’s attacking firepower.

The Italian manager is determined to build a completely revamped frontline after an underwhelming campaign in front of goal last season.

Kolo Muani Remains a Top Target

Among the names being closely monitored by Juventus, Randal Kolo Muani continues to occupy a prominent position. The French international has already expressed his willingness to return to Turin, just as he did during previous transfer windows.

However, as reported by Corriere dello Sport, the main obstacle remains Paris Saint-Germain. The reigning European champions continue to value the striker above Juventus’ preferred price range, with the Bianconeri reluctant to exceed an investment of €30–35 million.

While negotiations remain challenging, discussions are ongoing, and Juventus are hopeful of finding a financially sustainable formula to bring the French forward back to Serie A.

Sorloth Emerges as a Serious Alternative

Alongside the pursuit of Kolo Muani, Juventus are increasingly focusing on Atletico Madrid striker Alexander Sorloth. The Norwegian forward, born in 1995, fits the physical profile Spalletti has reportedly been seeking for several months.

Standing at 1.96 meters, Sorloth offers a different dimension to Juventus’ attack. After registering 20 goals and one assist in 54 appearances for Atletico Madrid last season.

He is viewed as a striker capable of providing a strong presence inside the penalty area, effective hold-up play, and valuable support in the build-up phase.

Juventus have already begun exploring the conditions of a potential deal through the player’s representatives. The primary issue remains Atletico Madrid’s valuation, with the Spanish club reportedly demanding between €30 million and €35 million for the Norwegian international.

A possible solution could involve Nico Gonzalez. The Argentine winger is believed to be interested in continuing his experience in Spain following his loan spell in the Spanish capital.

Although Atletico Madrid previously chose not to activate their purchase option under the agreed terms, negotiations could be reopened, with Sorloth potentially becoming part of a larger deal involving Gonzalez.

Juventus are also keeping an eye on opportunities outside the striker market. One name under consideration is Leon Goretzka, who is expected to leave Bayern Munich.

The German midfielder has reportedly been offered to the Bianconeri after AC Milan cooled their interest following recent changes within the club’s hierarchy.

Spalletti is said to appreciate Goretzka’s profile, viewing him as a player capable of bringing experience, leadership, and personality to the dressing room.

Nevertheless, strengthening the midfield is not currently considered the club’s top priority, with Juventus focused primarily on rebuilding their attack ahead of the new season.
