A top Juventus ace is set to join Barcelona on a free transfer next summer, as the Catalan club looks to strengthen its attack.
Barcelona is preparing a major move for a high-profile star who will be available on a free transfer this summer, with the club showing serious interest in securing a proven goalscorer to replace Robert Lewandowski.
The Catalan giants are carefully evaluating their options as they navigate financial constraints under La Liga’s strict spending rules, making free transfers increasingly attractive for strengthening their squad.
The club has identified a specific condition that must be met before it can proceed with any free agent signing.
In a major development, Juventus star Dusan Vlahovic is open to a free move to Barcelona, according to Diario Sport.
The 25-year-old Serbian striker has been in consistent discussions with Barcelona’s agents over the past several months, and the Blaugrana are currently the favorite to secure his signature.
Vlahovic is expected to depart Juventus when his contract expires at the end of June 2026.
The condition Barcelona has set is that they will only sign Vlahovic if his salary demands align with their budget, which they understand to be around €12 million annually.
The Serbian international is seeking to rejuvenate his career following a challenging four-year stint in Turin, and Barcelona sees this as a low-risk, high-reward opportunity.
Acquiring him as a free agent would represent a rare chance to solve Barcelona’s striker problem without a massive upfront transfer cost.
Vlahovic would instantly address Barcelona’s lack of a dominant striker, which has been one of the biggest sporting gaps the team will face once Lewandowski departs.
As a free agent, he would also provide leadership and experience in big European nights, something Barcelona desperately needs.
Bringing Vlahovic to Camp Nou seems like a logical move for both parties, offering the striker a fresh start and the club a proven goalscorer available without a transfer fee.
