However, neither can match the European football on offer from Juventus's Europa League berth or from rival suitors Bayern Munich and Barcelona.
Gazzetta dello Sport reports that a final meeting between Miloš Vlahović and Juventus will determine whether the 26-year-old Serbia striker stays or goes, with the club unwilling to exceed €6m per season and his camp seeking €8m — a gap of €2m that has so far proved unbridgeable. There is widespread pessimism within the club that a renewal will be agreed.
Vlahović has been linked to the idea of remaining in Turin. His form improved sharply after returning from injury late in the season, scoring four goals in five league appearances. But Juventus's sixth-place Serie A finish — and the consequent absence from the Champions League — has undermined the conditions under which he would have been most likely to extend.
Chelsea and Newcastle United are taking the approach from Miloš Vlahović seriously, though both clubs will not compete in European competition next season — which gives Bayern and Barcelona a structural advantage. For a striker with extensive experience scoring in elite European competition, that distinction matters.
Vlahović's injury record across the past two seasons is a complicating factor regardless of destination, as is the agent commission structure that makes any deal more expensive for the acquiring club than his salary alone suggests.
