Juventus plans summer signings as Vlahovic departs and midfield targets emerge

Striker Dusan Vlahovic is set to leave Juventus after the club and player failed to reach a new contract. Vlahovic finished his Juventus career with 168 appearances, 68 goals and one Coppa Italia title. The club now faces the task of replacing him, with manager Luciano Spalletti seeking a high‑profile forward and also looking at strengthening the goalkeeper position.

Juventus are also targeting a new midfield creator, citing a need for a player similar to Stanislav Lobotka, while keeping an eye on potential departures such as defender Andrea Cambiaso and centre‑back Gleison Bremer. Financial Fair Play constraints and the lack of Champions League qualification add pressure to generate funds through sales. Rumours linking Atletico Madrid’s Koke, former captain Giorgio Chiellini or Spalletti’s resignation have been dismissed as unfounded. The club’s summer transfer strategy will focus on addressing the striker, midfield and goalkeeper needs within these constraints.
