Chelsea have reportedly identified Juventus frontman Dusan Vlahovic as their priority target for the upcoming summer transfer window.
The Blues are desperate to reinforce an underwhelming front line which failed to perform this season and the Serbia international Vlahovic is said to be the top name on the shopping list prepared by the Chelsea top brass.
According to a report from ESPN, it is claimed that an €80 million offer has been tabled for the in-demand Juventus striker who has netted 23 goals in 62 games in all competitions for the Bianconeri but is looking to seek a move away from Turin.
Juve manager Massimiliano Allegri’s defensive approach and the uncertainty that surrounds the Italian club’s Champions League qualification next season has sparked off fresh speculation over Vlahovic’s future in the colours of Juventus.
Incoming Chelsea head coach Mauricio Pochettino has been assured that a new striker will arrive at the Bridge when the transfer window reopens for business with the Blues camp ready to rebuild their squad before the next season gets underway.
