The latest Newcastle transfer news – Newcastle United are among four Premier League clubs monitoring Dusan Vlahovic, as Juventus set €55m asking price.
Dusan Vlahovic could be on the move again this summer. Despite regaining form under Igor Tudor, the Serbian striker might be sold by Juventus. His price? €55 million.
The Bianconeri are considering a major reshuffle in attack. And according to the Spanish outlet Fichajes, Vlahovic could be sacrificed for financial gain. That decision has alerted several Premier League clubs, including Newcastle United and Aston Villa.
Vlahovic joined Juventus from Fiorentina in January 2022 with high expectations. But things did not go according to plan initially. After struggling under Max Allegri and then being relegated to a supporting role under Thiago Motta, his career was at a crossroads.
However, Igor Tudor’s arrival gave Vlahovic a second chance in Turin. The 25-year-old is back scoring and playing with confidence. But despite this resurgence, Juventus are ready to listen to offers.
Newcastle transfer news – Newcastle and Aston Villa want Dusan Vlahovic
The report from Fichajes reveals that Juventus are demanding €55 million for Vlahovic. They also claim the striker is asking for a salary of €10 million per season. It is a high investment – but one that Premier League clubs are seriously considering.
Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester United are all monitoring the situation. But it is Newcastle United and Aston Villa who are reportedly showing the most concrete interest.
Newcastle want to add a proven goalscorer to support or even replace Alexander Isak, amid ongoing contract uncertainty. Vlahovic, with his physical presence and lethal finishing, could be the ideal candidate.

As for Aston Villa, Unai Emery wants more firepower to compete in the Champions League. They are also keeping tabs on Vlahovic, especially if Ollie Watkins attracts bids this summer.
Dusan Vlahovic to Newcastle or Dusan Vlahovic to Aston Villa?
Vlahovic would be a statement signing for either club. At 25, he is entering his prime. His form under Tudor has proven that he can still perform at the highest level.
For Newcastle United, a front line of Vlahovic, Isak, and Barnes could cause serious damage. It would also give them depth, something they lacked this season during their injury crisis.

Meanwhile, Aston Villa could use Vlahovic as a direct competitor or partner for Watkins. It would be a frightening duo in attack, with Villa set to play European football again next season.
The Serbian has not yet decided on his future. But Juventus are open to offers. And both Villa and Newcastle are lurking. Expect more developments as the transfer window opens.
