Man Utd in Advanced Talks for Swap Deal for Juve Vlahovic
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on WhatsappShare on EmailShare on Telegram

Premier League club Manchester United are reportedly in advanced negotiations with Juventus over a potential swap deal involving Dutch striker Joshua Zirkzee and Serbian forward Dusan Vlahovic.

Ruben Amorim’s side, currently 13th in the league after 20 matches, has struggled for goals this season. Only four teams, including Crystal Palace and Everton, have netted fewer. With Marcus Rashford reportedly seeking a “new challenge” and recent signings like Rasmus Hojlund and Zirkzee failing to deliver consistently, United are seeking reinforcements.

Zirkzee, who joined United from Bologna last summer for £36.5m, has scored only four goals in 29 appearances, drawing heavy criticism from fans. Juventus have expressed interest in the striker, paving the way for a swap deal with Vlahovic. Reports indicate that talks are progressing well, with all parties eager to finalize the agreement.

The move comes as United aim to bolster their attack following a poor campaign under Amorim. Vlahovic, a proven goalscorer for Juventus, is seen as a potential solution to their attacking woes. A source close to the deal revealed optimism that negotiations could conclude in the coming weeks.

Despite his struggles, Zirkzee had a moment of redemption last weekend, scoring the decisive penalty in United’s FA Cup shootout victory over Arsenal. Amorim praised the Dutch forward’s resilience, highlighting the support from fans during the crucial moments.

United fans are also eager for progress in the league, with the club’s low-scoring record seen as a major factor in their disappointing position. The potential addition of Vlahovic is expected to boost morale and address their scoring issues.
