Chiellini announces Vlahovic's departure from Juventus

Juventus sporting director Giorgio Chiellini has confirmed that Dušan Vlahović will depart the club at the end of his contract on June 30. Speaking through a statement shared on his official X account, Chiellini admitted he was disappointed by the striker’s decision, noting that Vlahović “cares about our club” but has chosen to move on. He added that the current salary structure in Italy makes it impossible for the Serbian forward to remain. Vlahović, who joined Juventus from Fiorentina in January 2022 for 80 million euros, has been linked with Barcelona and Inter Milan as potential destinations.

The 24‑year‑old endured an inconsistent season but still produced 10 goals and two assists across 23 appearances in all competitions. His departure marks the end of a high‑profile chapter for Juventus, who invested heavily in his arrival and now face the challenge of reshaping their attack without one of their most valuable assets.
