Dušan Vlahović tops Serie A’s salary charts with a €19.44 million gross annual wage, but Juventus may look to offload him this summer due to form and financial concerns.
Dušan Vlahović is officially the highest-paid player in Serie A, with a staggering €19.44 million gross annual salary. Despite his hefty wage, the Juventus striker is struggling to live up to expectations this season—raising doubts about his long-term future in Turin.
The 24-year-old Serbian forward has faced form issues, which, combined with his salary, have made him a financial burden for the Bianconeri. As a result, Juventus are reportedly open to selling him in the upcoming transfer window, especially with his contract set to expire soon.
Vlahović's name continues to circulate among Europe’s top clubs, including Paris Saint-Germain, Bayern Munich, Chelsea, and Arsenal. More recently, Italian media have floated the idea of a swap deal involving Sandro Tonali, which would see Vlahović head to England and the Italian midfielder return to Serie A from Newcastle United.
However, Juventus face a major obstacle: Vlahović’s market value has dropped significantly, and the club is unlikely to recoup their initial investment. Current estimates suggest he could fetch between €30–40 million, far below what the Bianconeri once expected.
