According to a report by Caught Offside, Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur are keen on signing Dusan Vlahovic in the summer transfer window. The Juventus striker is also the subject of interest from Manchester United. The Red Devils are ready to beat their fellow Premier League clubs by offering Jadon Sancho in a swap deal, with talks over an exchange arrangement underway.
Dusan Vlahovic has flattered to deceive since joining Juventus from Fiorentina in January 2022. The Serb was among the most highly-rated prospects in Serie A when he snubbed Arsenal to move to the Allianz Stadium over three years ago. However, he has blown hot and cold during his spell with the Bianconeri.
The 25-year-old improved in the 2024/25 season, contributing to 22 goals in 2,695 minutes of game time across 44 appearances in all competitions by finding the back of the net 17 times and providing five assists. However, Vlahovic faces an uncertain future at Juventus after they signed Jonathan David in a Bosman move. The situation has piqued the attention of several bigwigs, including Aston Villa, Tottenham Hotspur, and Manchester United.
The Serbian international has been on Arsenal’s radar for a long time. The interest makes sense, considering Marcus Rashford did not complete a permanent move after a successful loan spell in the second half of the 2024/25 season. In addition, Ollie Watkins faces an uncertain future at Villa Park amid Aston Villa’s PSR woes. So, Vlahovic is a viable target for the West Midlands outfit.
Meanwhile, Tottenham Hotspur’s interest in Dusan Vlahovic is somewhat perplexing yet understandable. The North London outfit broke the bank to sign Dominic Solanke last summer. However, fitness issues plagued the English international in his debut season. In addition, Richarlison faces an uncertain future at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with a summer exit possible.
However, Manchester United will aim to beat Aston Villa and Tottenham after opening talks to sign the 25-year-old Serb in a swap deal involving Jadon Sancho. Recent reports have claimed that Sancho is closing in on joining Juventus. However, the Serie A giants are keen on parting ways with Vlahovic this summer.
So, a swap deal involving the Serbian international and Sancho will benefit both clubs. It will be interesting to see if the exchange arrangement appeals to Juventus and if Manchester United can beat the other Premier League clubs to Vlahovic’s signature.
