Juve, Dusan Vlahovic departing: Giuntoli ready to swap for an absolute top guy
Juventus is facing a period of uncertainty on a physical and technical level, as well as financially. The latest chapter in this story concerns Milik’s injury, which has reignited the urgency of finding a center forward to fill the void left by the Polish striker.

This episode is part of a larger context, where Juventus, after a summer focused mainly on defense, now finds itself having to think urgently about the offensive department. The idea of buying a striker is not new, but now, in light of the unforeseen events, it becomes a priority.
Another thorny issue concerns Dusan Vlahovic, the Serbian bomber who, despite his potential, is not having a serene moment with the club. Negotiations for the renewal of his contract, which expires in 2026, have been stalled for months.
Juventus would like to reduce Vlahovic’s current salary, which comes to 12 million net, but his demand to remain at the top of the wage scale is making a deal difficult. It is a situation that is giving the Juventus management pause for thought, with Giuntoli likely to start considering alternative solutions, including a possible sale, so as not to risk losing the center forward without cashing in.
Scambio tra Vlahovic e Kolo Muani: l’idea che stuzzica
Against this backdrop of uncertainty, an intriguing solution could be an exchange of strikers between Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain. On the one hand, Juve is considering Kolo Muani, a French center forward who is not finding much space at PSG.

Since his return from the national team break, his minutes have been drastically reduced, so much so that he has become an almost expendable pawn for Luis Enrique. Despite the major investment that PSG made on him, paying about 90 million to Eintracht Frankfurt, the striker has failed to establish himself as the undisputed starter for the Parisian club. Here, then, Juventus, albeit with some financial difficulties, is trying to sound the ground for a deal to bring the talented Frenchman to Turin.
The hypothesis would be that of a loan with right of redemption, perhaps with part of the €8 million annual salary that PSG currently pays Kolo Muani remaining with the Parisian club. However, this solution is not the only one on the table.
With Vlahovic set to expire in 2026 and with his contract continuing to burden the Bianconeri’s budget, the possibility of a permanent swap is not to be ruled out; in fact, it could become a win-win move for both parties. Juve, in fact, could budget for a disposal that, while not bringing huge profits, would settle the finances, while PSG could find in the Serbian an ideal figure to complete its attack, especially considering that Gonçalo Ramos has not yet convinced Luis Enrique.
Un incastro complicato ma possibile
The idea of an exchange between Vlahovic and Kolo Muani might seem like a complex operation, especially at the level of numbers and signings. However, the soccer market has accustomed us to creative solutions and, above all, to quick shifts in an increasingly global and interconnected market.
Juventus needs to lighten its payroll, while PSG could see in Kolo Muani a useful asset, but with a departure that is now inevitable. It is no coincidence that the Turin-Paris axis is heating up again, with the possibility of expanding the discussion to other players as well, such as Milan Skriniar, whose future at PSG is not yet entirely certain.
Juve is in a hurry to fix the attack, and with the season going up and down, it could be the right move to look for a short-term solution. But the market is unpredictable, and the possibility of seeing Vlahovic leave for Paris could be just the beginning of a series of shake-ups at the Bianconeri.
