Vlahovic rejects €60 million Saudi Arabia offer for potential move to rivals AC Milan

The striker is not in Juventus' long-term plans. They are keen to offload him a year before his contract expires, and shed his hefty €12 million annual salary.

This wage presents a significant hurdle for AC Milan, who would need to stretch their budget to bring Vlahovic to the seven-time European champions.

Upon his return to the San Siro, Max Allegri has reportedly requested Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic, according to journalist Nicolo Schira, as reported by Sportal.

The striker has reportedly given the green light for a transfer to fierce rivals AC Milan and looking forward to a move.

The transfer fee itself isn't excessive, estimated at around €30 million. However, the challenge lies in reaching an agreement with the Serbian international, potentially involving a compromise on his salary demands.

Working in Milan's favor is the fact that Vlahovic doesn't appear to be primarily motivated by money, having recently rejected lucrative offers.

As in the past winter window, the 25-year-old striker has fielded multiple offers from Saudi Arabia but has dismissed them all. Reports suggest he was offered three-year deals worth over €20 million per season, but even these substantial sums failed to tempt him.

Vlahovic has no intention of moving to the Middle East in his prime. This also explains his lack of interest in Fenerbahce, who were reportedly ready to present him with a lucrative contract.

Numerous clubs have been linked with Vlahovic, but his wage demands have proven a stumbling block for most. AC Milan are currently the frontrunners, where he would likely become a key player and focal point of the attack.

There is even speculation of a potential swap deal between the two giants, with Theo Hernandez moving in the opposite direction. Expect some dramatic developments in Italy in the coming days.
