"According to Tuttosport, as relayed by SPORT, it has come to light that Barcelona sporting director Deco has begun informal talks with Dusan Vlahovic's representatives to explore a possible transfer in the summer of 2026. The outlet mentions that Deco has been in contact since August with the striker's agent, Darko Ristic, to assess the player's situation, though no formal offer has been made."
"Vlahovic's contract with Juventus expires in 2026, making him an attractive option from an economic standpoint as he could potentially arrive on a free transfer. At 25 years old, the Serbian striker offers a profile similar to Robert Lewandowski since he is a classic number nine, strong in the box, with notable international experience. In recent months, Vlahovic has been linked with Premier League giants like Chelsea, Arsenal, and Manchester United."
"However, the player and his entourage have consistently vetoed moves that would compromise his playing time, which has limited Juventus' options and frustrated their plans. Furthermore, it is said that Bayern Munich have also made inquiries, but the Bundesliga route is not currently a priority for Vlahovic, as a guaranteed starting spot would only be possible if Harry Kane departs."

Barcelona would need to meet wage demands despite a saved transfer fee and is weighing sporting benefits against financial constraints.
