The waiting game in the Dušan Vlahović seems to be coming to an end as a new front-runner has emerged which could lead to his Fiorentina exit in the coming days. The club have submitted an official proposal after reaching a verbal agreement in hopes of landing the 21-year-old striker before the end of the January transfer window, CBS Sports insider Fabrizio Romano reports. And according to Sky Italia reports the two sides have agreed on a fee, and only negotiations between the player and his potential new club remain.
Fiorentina are reported to be asking around €75 million — just under $80 million — for Vlahović, but at the same time are open to discuss with Juventus a possible departure in the next hours before the end of window on Jan. 31. Vlahović and Fiorentina failed to reach an agreement to extend his current contract, with which expires in June 2023, which is why they’re looking to cash in in the coming months. Fiorentina are already looking for a replacement and have submitted an opening bid to Basel in order to sign Brazilian striker Arthur Cabral.
Fiorentina director Daniele Pradè has expressed his openness to sell his star Serbian striker, but is waiting to hear back from his representation on whether or not they approve of a January exit. “Yes, we’ve received important bids for Vlahović in January, we’re open to sell but we’ve never received an answer from his agents,” Pradè told Sportitalia in an interview. In regards to Juventus being in the race for Vlahović’s services, Pradè said: “Our doors are open. We’ll wait for Dusan to decide, but we need an answer.”
Vlahović is tied with Ciro Immobile of Lazio…
