CONFIRMED: Man Utd Sign £200,000-a-Week ‘Monster’

The report from TBR Football states that United remain interested in Vlahovic, with Juventus planning to sell the highest earner in Serie A – unless he signs a new contract in the coming weeks.

They are joined by Arsenal and Chelsea in the race for the Serbian ‘monster’, with Arsenal struggling for goals this season without a natural striker; whilst Chelsea’s need for competition for Nicolas Jackson could see him move to the capital.

United are thought to be targeting a new striker themselves, especially if Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee can’t hit the net consistently in their time at Old Trafford – and whilst Juventus were initially confident of agreeing a deal with Vlahovic, that has stalled and with his current contract running out in 2026, it represents Juve’s last chance to sell him before his value starts to plummet from the £70million they paid Fiorentina.

With Vlahovic currently Serie A’s highest earner, reportedly on £200,000-per-week after tax, it’s a figure that Juve are ‘uncomfortable’ with and that could see the striker depart after just under three years in Turin with a departure ‘likely’ unless there is a breakthrough in the coming weeks.United would benefit from having an out-and-out striker, and with Vlahovic having scored 83 Serie A goals in 186 games – almost a tally of one in every two games – he is evidently a more proven talent than both Hojlund and Zirkzee.
