Dusan Vlahovic has been one of the most talked-about names at Juventus this season. His goal against Empoli, while breaking a long drought at home, was not accompanied by the usual celebration. His reaction after the goal clearly showed that there are many questions on the Serbian striker's mind, especially regarding his future.

After a difficult January, full of criticism and absences, Vlahovic's position at Juventus is no longer the same. In addition to the problems with form, he now has a serious competitor for the starting spot, Randal Kolo Muani, who has exploded with three goals in the last two games. In the winter transfer window, there was a lot of talk about a possible departure of Vlahovic, but this did not happen.

Currently, the relationship between Juventus and Vlahovic is cold. The black and white club is not convinced to continue with him in the long term, while the striker himself is not happy with his situation. Negotiations for a contract renewal are blocked, after Vlahovic rejected the club's latest offer, and the sporting director, Giuntoli, has no desire to improve it.

This setback has caused confidence in the Serbian striker to drop significantly. However, Juventus have a clear plan for him, to make the most of him until the end of the season for two main reasons.

Juventus are in a strong fight for their targets and, despite everything, Vlahovic remains a striker with potential. If he manages to return to his best form, he can help the team with goals and good performances.

If Vlahovic manages to score regularly until the end of the season, his transfer value will increase, giving Juventus the opportunity to sell him for a higher fee. The club does not want to lose him for nothing or sell him for a low fee.

Juventus have already started to consider options for Vlahovic's future. Two big clubs are interested in him, PSG and Barcelona.

The French giants have shown interest in Vlahovic since the January transfer window and could return again in the summer.

The Catalans are looking for a successor to Robert Lewandowski, who is entering the final stages of his career. Vlahovic is seen as a possible candidate to replace the Pole and lead Barcelona's attack in the coming years. However, the Spanish club's financial problems could be an obstacle to this transfer.

A meeting between Vlahovic's agents and Juventus is expected in the coming days, where there could be new developments and perhaps surprises. If a good offer arrives at the table of the Bianconeri, the Serbian striker's departure could become a reality.
