‘For a long time’ – Juventus journalist confirms Vlahovic has spoken with Allegri and Tare

It is no secret that Massimiliano Allegri has been trying to get Dusan Vlahovic to arrive at AC Milan since last summer, and a journalist has looked at the situation. 

Nearly a year on from Allegri’s arrival at Milan, the same issues exist. Whilst he has transformed Rafael Leao and Christian Pulisic into capable strikers, the lack of a prominent number nine is still showing.

So, with Vlahovic’s deal expiring in the summer, it seems a move will be made.

The Vlahovic pursuit

Speaking on the TMW Radio show ‘Maracana’, Paolo Paganini revealed that Allegri and Igli Tare had been in contact with Vlahovic on a few occasions, as PianetaMilan relays.

“The discussion is linked to Luciano Spalletti. Before his arrival, the Juventus management had taken it for granted that Vlahovic would leave in June.

“Now with Spalletti, who had certain words for the Serbian, the scenario has changed. But the variable is Allegri.

“Milan have been interested in Vlahovic for a long time, Allegri has spoken often with Vlahovic and also Tare. I don’t know how much Juventus can recover the lost ground.”

Of course, looking back to the Adrien Rabiot pursuit, Allegri stated that there had been no contact, only for the Frenchman to reveal that, in fact, there had been a lot of it during the summer. It seems this is the case with Vlahovic, too.
