FC Barcelona could make a move to sign Juventus midfielder
FC Barcelona played one of the best ever Champions League ties against Inter Milan in the semi final last year. Inter managed to get the better of Barcelona, seven to six on aggregate. Barcelona where unlucky not to reach the final being one of Europes best team last season.
While, Lamine Yamal was the main star of the team a lot of strength came in midfield. This was done with a La Masia prospect, Pedri, being helped by Frenkie De Jong. Barcelona still have one of Europes strongest midfields, sitting first in La Liga. But, they will still look to improve it this summer.
According to Fichajes via Spanish paper Sport, they could try and sign Manuel Locatelli from Juventus. Juventus have had an up and down season, but Locatelli has been a star for them this campaign. He has put himself on the map with Europes top teams, like FC Barcelona.

Locatelli is wanted by Barcelona as he would slot perfectly into Hansi Flick’s tactical system. Barca’s push to sign Locatelli is helped by the fact that Flick asked the club for the midfielder. However, Barca’s strong interest is no guarantee the deal will get done.
Juventus want to keep Manuel Locatelli as he has been a key player for Luciano Spalletti. This comes as Spalletti is in talks with Juventus to extend his contract for two more seasons. Juventus have also decided to enter talks with Locatelli to extend his contract until 2030, due to his recent performances.

Juventus becoming optimistic over chances of a renewal with Dusan Vlahovic
Dusan Vlahovic looked almost certain to leave Juventus at the start of this season, as contract renewal looked hopeless. Juventus simply couldn’t meet his wage demands so instead they signed replacements. Jonathan David and Lois Openda where bought in who were seen as new starting strikers.
But, both have struggled to hit the ground running for Juventus this campaign struggling to provide goals. Jonathan David will likely stay in Turin as he has been the main starter for Luciano Spalletti. Openda however, will likely leave Turin which could have the Bianconeri back to square one in there replacement search.

Expect for the fact that they may not have to replace Vlahovic at all as he could stay in Turin. This came as Vlahovic suffered an abductor injury for Juventus in November of last season, which saw him miss 21 games. Europe’s big clubs like AC Milan, bayern and Chelsea who did want to sign Vlahovic all lost interest while he wasn’t playing due to injury.
Corriere Dello Sport is now reporting that Juventus will have a fresh set of talks with Vlahovic is they aim to keep him in Turin. However, the deal is not as straightforward as it soons as they two parties still have disagreements. Mainly over salary as Dusan wants 12 million euros per season to stay.
Juventus are hoping to pay Vlahovic closer to a six million euro per season sum. This would put him on par with both Jonathan David and Kenan Yildiz despite him being a favourite of Luciano Spalletti’s. Vlahovic will have to decide soon if he is willing to stay with Juventus a figure nearly half of his asking price or make a move elsewhere, before it is too late.
