Jackson too pricey: Vlahovic still an option for Bayern Munich | OneFootball

In recent months, FC Bayern has repeatedly been linked with a move for Dusan Vlahovic. Currently, the Serbian striker from Juventus Turin is not an urgent topic at Säbener Straße, but according to transfer insider Fabrizio Romano, this could change again in the summer of 2026.

As Romano explained in his YouTube update, the German record champions contacted the striker’s management twice in October. The aim was to gather information about the financial framework of a possible transfer.

However, there have been no concrete talks or even an offer: “There were two calls, but no further contact since mid-October. Bayern just wanted to know what the situation was,” said Romano.

With this, the transfer insider also confirmed recent reports from German media that Vlahovic is currently not a hot topic in Munich.

Contract at Juventus expires – many top clubs interested

The 25-year-old Serb is under contract with Juventus Turin only until the summer of 2026. According to consistent media reports, an extension is off the table – the club and player are said to have ended their talks months ago.

This means Vlahovic could be available on a free transfer in a few months – a scenario that is attracting the attention of numerous top European clubs. In addition to Bayern, Newcastle United and FC Barcelona are also said to be closely monitoring the striker’s development.

The future of Jackson could be decisive

Whether Vlahovic will actually become a topic in Munich again also depends on the situation of Nicolas Jackson. The Senegalese striker is currently on loan from FC Chelsea, but has not been able to impress sustainably so far. As things stand, there is little to suggest that FCB will exercise the fixed purchase option of 65 million euros.

Should Bayern decide against a permanent signing of the 24-year-old, Vlahovic could come back into focus, according to Romano.
