At San Siro against Milan, Dusan Vlahović was used for just nine minutes, including stoppage time, but his return from a calf issue represents a significant boost for Juventus and head coach Luciano Spalletti.
The Serbian striker is back in action and determined to contribute to the Bianconeri’s push for a Champions League spot.

With only four Serie A matches remaining before his current contract expires—signed in 2022 after his move from Fiorentina—his future remains a key talking point.
Despite injury setbacks and an underwhelming scoring record this season (3 goals in 15 league appearances), Vlahović and his representatives are reportedly reconsidering their next steps, which may not necessarily point toward an exit.
Contract Renewal Talks and Interest from Abroad
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, discussions over a possible short-term renewal are progressing positively. Juventus are considering a “bridge contract” that could extend his stay until 2028, helping both player and club regain stability.
The striker’s sense of belonging within the squad has remained intact, and Spalletti’s ongoing project of collective recovery is seen as a positive factor in his decision-making process.
Juventus are in direct contact with Vlahović’s representatives and his father, Milos, who plays a key role in his career decisions.

The proposed deal could include a salary aligned with the club’s top wage structure—around €6 million per year plus bonuses, similar to the contract recently signed by Kenan Yıldız.
While Vlahović is not keen on joining another Italian club—effectively cooling interest from Milan, who had shown strong admiration in recent months—there is growing attention from abroad.
Bayern Munich are monitoring the situation closely and could offer a comparable financial package, potentially positioning him as a backup or rotation option for Harry Kane.
For now, however, a stay in Turin remains on the table. After a challenging 2025/26 season, Vlahović appears open to rebuilding his form in a familiar environment, with Juventus and Spalletti sharing the ambition of a renewed push for the Serie A title.
