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.

Marcus Thuram has been one of the biggest names around Inter Milan as he looked set to leave this summer. These rumours began circulating when he missed eight games in January. This allowed Pio Esposito and Ange Yoan Bonny to shine in his place, which led to rumours of him making a move.

This was also met with reported attitude problems out of Thuram during the time. That was the ultimate kicker motivating the move especially with some teams being able to pay top money for Thuram. However, recently his form has improved scoring two goals against Como and scoring one and assisting two the week before that.

His form turn around now has Inter Milan inclined to keep him according to Gazzetta Dello Sport. He is now seen as an integral part of the Nerazzurri plans, and small talks for a contract extension have started. This comes as his deal expires in 2028, so there is plenty of time to spare for a renewal.

Hakan Calhanoglu future however is not so certain as he has been linked to leave Inter as well this summer. There has been talks for a move to Galatasaray which have been motivated mainly by the fact that his contract expires at the end of next season. However, Fabrizio Romano has labelled these rumours completely false on his youtube channel.

Romano is reporting that Hakan is fully committed to stay with Inter Milan into next season. That season will be the last season of his current contract. But, both parties believe that they can manage to get an extension done so Hakan is not stressed at all. He only see’s his future playing for Inter for now.

Alessandro Bastoni has been under considerable pressure over the last few months, ever since the Derby D’Italia in February. He took a dive which saw Juventus defender Pierre Kalulu sent off. If he had of being booked for simulation he would have been sent off instead the result of the game likely would’ve gone the other way.

Bastoni was booed for most of his Serie A matches after that until he got the national team for World Cup playoffs at the end of March. However, things only got worse with Bastoni being sent off in the final against Bosnia in a match the Azzurri lost on penalties. This then lead to the firing of both Gabriele Gravina and Gennaro Gattuso because of the failure.

Bastoni was bought off to a standing ovation against Roma from the Nerazzurri two weeks ago. However, he still struggled against FC Como this weekend being bought off at halftime. But, the pressures of Italian football could see Bastoni seek a move according to Gazzetta Dello Sport (Via FCInterNewsIT).

This could lead to him preferring a move to join FC Barcelona rather than staying with Inter Milan despite recent rumours. However, these talks won’t start until the summer, putting the deal on hold. However, Barcelona are still working now as they weigh up a move for Andrea Cambiaso.

This comes from a report from Dario Pellegrini on X who is reporting that Barcelona are preparing a bid for Cambiaso. Barcelona are working through intermediaries to try and find a suitable offer to Juventus. This could be difficult as Luciano Spalletti who will stay on as Juventus coach likes Cambiaso, but he could still be up for sale for the right price.
