Juventus star Dusan Vlahovic’s agent stopped Man United move
According to AS (via Sport Witness) [h/t Manchester Evening News], Juventus star Dusan Vlahovic‘s agent blocked a move to Manchester United for his client in January.
The 23-year-old striker had reportedly been offered to United, who were said to have agreed a deal with Juventus for his services. However, the agent stopped the move which meant Man United signed Wout Weghorst on a loan transfer.
Vlahovic had been in impressive form for Juventus in the Serie A. His performances had caught the attention of several top European clubs, including United, who were in the market for a new striker to bolster their attacking options.
However, the deal was halted when Vlahovic’s agent expressed reservations about the move. While the exact reasons for his reluctance are unknown, it is believed that he did not see United as the right fit for his client at the time.
United could reignite their interest in Vlahovic in the summer. The club could make another move for the Serbian striker, who has continued to impress for the Old Lady this season in what has been a very difficult period for them.
Vlahovic’s ability to hold up the ball and bring others into play, as well as his clinical finishing in front of goal, would make him an ideal fit for United. He is young and has a very huge career ahead of him which can be at a top club.
United’s interest in Vlahovic is not surprising given their recent history of signing young, talented players. The club has a long tradition of nurturing young talent, and Vlahovic would fit that profile perfectly.
However, it remains to be seen whether his agent will be more receptive to a move next time around. If United can convince him that the club is the right fit for his client, they could land one of the most exciting young strikers in Europe.
