Chelsea and Arsenal in pursuit of €427,308 per week striker

Chelsea and Arsenal are reportedly planning to make a signing move for the Juventus Center forward in winter.

As the winter transfer window looms on the horizon, various big clubs have started to identify their targets and make a move for them. While all eyes stay on Chelsea, who were the highest spenders in summer, it is highly expected that the English giants are likely to go all in in the winter as well.

Chelsea’s spending has so far proven good for them. Despite having a horrible last season, Enzo Maresca’s managerial takeover has shown them some promising results so far, as they stand sixth in this season’s English football.

Though their frontline is doing exceptionally well, Maresca is keen to bring on a center forward to London all the way from Italy. However, they are likely to face tough competition from their counterparts in their bid.

Chelsea in a bid to sign Dusan Vlahovic

According to a report by TBR Football, Chelsea and Arsenal are keeping a close eye on the Serbian footballer Dusan Vlahovic, who is currently representing Serie A club Juventus. The 24-year-old signed a four-year contract with the Old Lady from Fiorentina back in 2022 for a massive prize of £66.6 million. Bagging around €427,308 per week, he is one of the most instrumental players in his club.

Notably, he is the highest goal scorer of his club this season with five goals to his name in Italian top-tier football, standing as the third-highest scorer in the league.

However, despite the strong demand in England, Vlahovic is likely to sign the contract extension with his current employees. Though any clarity on his probable extension is still to come, chances are quite high that many big clubs will offer him a lucrative deal considering his strong performance and reliability.

As things stand unclear till now, Vlahovic’s performance this season would be decisive in determining his next move. On the other hand, Juve keeps trying their best to extend his stay and could give him a substantial salary hike if he keeps delivering in the same way. Where do you want to see Vlahovic next season?
