Juventus reportedly scouting Dušan Vlahović successor

With the transfer window now closed, Juventus is already looking to the future.

According to Tuttosport, the club is actively searching for a replacement for striker Dusan Vlahovic, whose departure is reportedly being planned for the end of the season. One name on their radar is Santiago Castro, the young and talented forward from Bologna.

Dusan Vlahovic’s decision to stay at the club this summer was a surprising turn of events. However, with his high-paying contract expiring in 2026, the Serbian’s departure is seen as only postponed.

Juventus is reportedly treating this season as Vlahovic’s last in Turin and is moving proactively to find his successor well in advance.

The player identified to potentially take on Vlahovic’s role is Santiago “Santi” Castro. The 20-year-old Argentine forward is considered one of Serie A’s most promising talents.

Scouts believe he is a modern striker who can attack spaces behind the defense while also effectively linking up with his teammates.

Juventus’s scouts are said to be monitoring the Bologna player very closely. The club’s strategy is clear: plan ahead, follow the best young talents, and then make a move at the right time.

As Vlahovic prepares for his final chapter in Turin, Juventus is already looking to the future to ensure its attack remains strong.
