Chelsea could sign Vlahovic on free transfer
Chelsea are keeping an eye on Dusan Vlahovic, with reports in Italy claiming the Juventus striker could move to Stamford Bridge on a free transfer next summer.
The Blues brought in several attackers this year, including Joao Pedro and Liam Delap, but injuries have left the squad short of options at centre-forward.
With Delap out, coach Enzo Maresca has turned to young players like Tyrique George, though it hasn’t worked as planned.

Vlahovic’s contract with Juventus ends in 2026, and he reportedly wants to leave on a free transfer. While Chelsea see this as an opportunity, his high wages could be a problem.
The striker has already been linked with English clubs in the past, and interest from Germany is also expected.
Even if Chelsea don’t move for Vlahovic, they already have a striker lined up. Emanuel Emegha has signed a pre-contract agreement and will join Chelsea in 2026 after finishing the season on loan at Strasbourg.
