Paris Saint-Germain’s decision to part ways with Randal Kolo Muani opened up the chance for the club to bring in a new No. 9 to partner with Goncalo Ramos this summer.
One player under consideration was Juventus forward Dusan Vlahovic. According to CaughtOffside, PSG had planned to discuss his future in February, with the Serbian striker valued at around €65 million. At that time, he had yet to sign a new contract.
Arsenal and Manchester United were already in the running, but now PSG had also entered the race. However, Arsenal might have been looking to gain an edge over the competition.
What’s the latest on Dusan Vlahovic?
Amid ongoing transfer rumors, Football Insider reports that Aston Villa are working on a deal to sign Vlahovic and aim to fend off Premier League rivals for the Juventus striker.

This week, TEAMtalk reported that alongside Aston Villa, Manchester United, Tottenham, Bayern Munich, and Barcelona are also keeping an eye on Vlahovic’s situation.
The report also suggests that Juventus have asked Igor Tudor to help improve Vlahovic’s performances in the final stretch of the season in hopes of increasing his market value, which has dropped recently.
Juventus are reportedly looking to sell Vlahovic for around €40 million (£33.5 million), with several Premier League clubs interested.
Barcelona’s chances of signing Vlahovic may depend on how much money they can raise from player sales, although they are eager to find a long-term replacement for Robert Lewandowski.
