Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with a move for 25-year-old Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic in recent months.
As per a report by TEAMtalk, Tottenham have ruled out a move for Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic. Chelsea, Everton, and West Ham United remain keen on signing the player, and the development will come as a boost for them.
The Serb is valued at €20 million, and it will be interesting to see where he ends up. His contract with the Italian club expires in the summer. Vlahovic has not signed an extension, and therefore, Juventus are under pressure to sell him in January. The Serie A giants cannot afford to lose the player for free at the end of the season.
It remains to be seen whether Chelsea come forward with an offer to get the deal done. They have recently signed a couple of strikers, and investing in another centre-forward would be surprising. They should look to bring in a quality central defender and another winger instead.
Everton and West Ham need Vlahovic
On the other hand, Everton could desperately use another quality striker. Beto has not been able to live up to the expectations, and Everton need an alternative. The towering Serbian striker could be the ideal fit for them. Vlahovic has the physicality and technical attributes for English football, and he could make a big difference in the Premier League.
Everton are looking to build a team capable of fighting for a place in the top half, and they need players like Vlahovic. It will be interesting to see if they can convince the Serbian international to move to the Hill Dickinson Stadium.
Finally, West Ham United are in desperate need of a quality striker as well. Niclas Fullkrug has not been able to live up to the expectations, and the German striker will likely leave West Ham next year. The Hammers have been linked with multiple strikers in recent months, and it will be interesting to see if they can sign the player from Juventus.
The €20 million asking price is quite reasonable for a player of Vlahovic’s quality, and he could justify the investment in the coming seasons. The Serbian striker is at the peak of his powers, and he will look to make an instant impact. The opportunity to play in the Premier League will be exciting for the 25-year-old, and it remains to be seen where he ends up eventually.
