Juventus are in advanced talks to sign one of the most lethal young strikers in Europe. Fiorentina talisman Dusan Vlahovic, who is also a target for Arsenal and Spurs, looks to be on his way to Turin.

Italian newspaper La Gazzetta Dello Sport claimed that Juventus reached an agreement with Fiorentina on a five-year deal for the Serbian international, with a €75 million bid incoming. They're keen to sell him before the January window does conclude to cash in on the player, with only 18 months remaining on his current deal.

Vlahovic broke onto the scene last term, firing home 21 goals for Fiorentina in 40 appearances. The Serb has been in even better form in 2021/22, leading Serie A with 17 goals. He netted 33 times in 2021 alone, which is the second-most in Europe's top five leagues behind Bayern Munich star Robert Lewandowski.

According to Sky Sports Italy, Vlahovic's agent refuses to negotiate with Arsenal or Tottenham, with Juventus reportedly the only viable destination for the client. Aside from making his impact felt in Italy, Vlahovic is also a key figure in the Serbian national team, already bagging seven goals in just 10 games for his country as they prepare for the World Cup in Qatar later this year.

Juventus already have some interesting options up top in Paulo Dybala and Alvaro Morata, but Federico Chiesa is out for the rest of the season with a torn ACL. Bringing in Dusan Vlahovic would undoubtedly be massive for the club given his familiarity with Serie A. He's also motivated to play in the Champions League and hopefully, his arrival can help Max Allegri's side secure a top-four finish. The club is currently sitting in fifth spot in the table.
