Manchester United has struggled in recent years to secure the right striker. Initially, Rasmus Hojlund failed to impress, followed by Joshua Zirkzee, who also fell short of expectations.
Recently, Benjamin Sesko joined Old Trafford as another potential solution in the number nine position. However, the Slovenian forward has yet to make an impact, having failed to score a single goal in five appearances.
The club’s management is preparing to pursue yet another forward next year, with hopes of taking advantage of a unique opportunity. According to reports from La Gazzetta dello Sport, their target this time is Dusan Vlahović, who could become available on a free transfer.
Vlahović has not yet renewed his contract with Juventus. The Serbian striker’s current deal runs until June 2026, but all indications suggest that his future might lie away from Turin. During the most recent transfer window, the 25-year-old attracted interest from several high-profile clubs, including Bayern Munich, AC Milan, and Newcastle United.
The Serbia international joined Juventus in January 2022, transferring from Fiorentina for a fee of €83.5 million. Since donning the Juventus jersey, he has made 149 appearances, scoring 89 goals and delivering 17 assists. This season, Vlahović is competing with Jonathan David for a place in the team.
