Just in: Newcastle United offered the opportunity to sign 17-goal ace
Briefly

Juventus have made Dusan Vlahovic available for transfer after signing Jonathan David, offering the 25-year-old to clubs across Europe including Newcastle United. Vlahovic scored 17 goals in all competitions last season, but injuries and inconsistency in Turin have prompted Juve to listen to offers and seek bids around 30 million to reduce the wage bill. Newcastle are not planning to advance negotiations at this stage and it is unclear whether the player would accept a move. Newcastle remain focused on Yoane Wissa and are preparing a second bid for Jorgen Strand Larsen as primary attacking targets.
The Bianconeri are willing to accept bids in the region of 30 million, a figure designed to ease Vlahovic's departure and reduce the club's wage bill. His contract makes him one of Juve's highest earners, and the club are keen to rebalance their finances following David's arrival. Despite the proposal, Jacobs reports that Newcastle are not planning to advance with negotiations at this stage. It is also unclear whether Vlahovic himself would be interested in a switch to St James' Park.
According to journalist Ben Jacobs, Newcastle United have been presented with the opportunity to sign Serbian striker Dusan Vlahovic from Juventus. The attacker scored 17 goals for Serie A giants Juventus in all competitions last season. The Italian giants are open to moving the 25-year-old forward on in this window after securing Jonathan David from Lille, and have been offering his name to clubs across Europe, including Newcastle.
For Newcastle, attention remains fixed on other targets. The Magpies retain strong interest in Brentford's Yoane Wissa, who has emerged as a priority option in attack. In addition, Newcastle are preparing a second bid for Wolves forward Jorgen Strand Larsen, despite Wolves insisting that the Norwegian striker is not for sale. Eddie Howe and the recruitment team see both Wissa and Larsen as their top targets.
