INCREDIBLE: Dusan Vlahović Set to Join AC Milan This Season After Confirmed Deal With Juventus
In a stunning turn of events in the summer transfer window, AC Milan have secured the services of Serbian striker Dusan Vlahović, following a confirmed agreement with Serie A rivals Juventus. The 24-year-old forward is set to don the Rossoneri jersey this season, marking one of the most talked-about moves in Italian football in recent years.
A Shocking Move Across Rival Lines
The deal was officially confirmed late Saturday night, with both clubs reaching a final agreement reportedly worth €55 million, including performance-related bonuses. The move not only strengthens Milan’s attacking force but also signals a significant shift in their ambitions under newly-appointed manager Massimiliano Allegri, who previously coached Vlahović at Juventus.
Vlahović’s Impact and Journey
Vlahović joined Juventus from Fiorentina in January 2022 and has since scored 38 goals in 98 appearances for the Bianconeri. Known for his lethal finishing, aerial dominance, and physical presence, he was seen as a cornerstone for Juve’s future. However, tactical reshuffles, injury struggles, and contract complications reportedly contributed to the club’s decision to part ways.
For AC Milan, this signing is nothing short of a statement of intent. With Olivier Giroud heading to MLS and the need for a clinical frontman, Vlahović’s arrival fills a critical gap. He is expected to lead the line alongside young attacking talents like Rafael Leão, Noah Okafor, and Christian Pulisic.
Club Reaction
In an official statement, Milan declared, “Dusan Vlahović is a player of world-class caliber. His hunger, energy, and goal-scoring instincts are aligned with our vision for the future. We welcome him with pride to San Siro.”
Juventus, meanwhile, expressed gratitude for Vlahović’s contributions and wished him success in his new chapter.
What’s Next?
The Serbian international is set to undergo medicals in the coming days and will be unveiled at San Siro next week. His debut is expected during Milan’s pre-season tour in the United States.
