Reports: Vlahovic in salary stand-off with Juventus as Milan lurk – the situation

By: Ben Dixon

AC Milan are in the wings, watching the situation with Dusan Vlahovic and Juventus unfold. In fact, they may be doing more than watching.

There is a clear interest in Vlahovic from Milan. It is understandable why. Not only do they need a striker, but they need reliability, and Massimiliano Allegri knows exactly what Vlahovic can do in the right environment.

Of course, last summer was underwhelming for the Serbian. However, he was in a situation that didn’t suit him, both tactically and environmentally. So, a change could be the best thing for all parties.

Severance pay to become possible

This is powered by his contractual situation with Juventus, too. As La Reppublica report, the striker could leave this summer by mutual consent, with the Bianconeri struggling to find anyone willing to pay his wages and transfer fee.

However, as MilanPress relay, a €10 million package could be agreed to allow him to leave this summer. At this point, the Diavolo would pounce, but they would only offer €6m per season, which would not be enough.

Next season, as Tuttosport (via Football Italia) writes, the striker wants to earn his €12m per season salary. If he does not, then he will seek in in severance from the Old Lady. In other words, Milan could then pounce on a lower wage with Juventus effectively covering the rest.

Work needs to be done, but it is impossible that the Rossoneri are the ones to cover his package next season at its current rate.
