Newcastle United will need to qualify for the UEFA Champions League in order to tempt Dusan Vlahovic to a move to St. James’ Park in the summer of 2026, according to Football Insider.
Vlahovic is out of contract at Juventus at the end of the season and has yet to agree to put pen to paper on fresh terms. Newcastle will be in the market for a new striker when the transfer window opens.
Journalist Pete O’Rourke said: “Anybody who’s needing a striker in the summer transfer window, which I’m sure there’ll be plenty of clubs, Vlahovic will be high up on those lists because he has been a proven goalscorer for Juventus over the years.
“He’s still only 26 as well, so he’s at a good age coming to the prime of his career for Newcastle. Whether they could win that race for him…that remains to be seen.
“Could they offer him Champions League football? We don’t know if that’s going to be a possibility or not, and I’m sure Vlahovic himself will be looking to play at the highest level possible.“
