Atletico Madrid pursue Dusan Vlahovic after Juventus departure

Atletico Madrid has initiated discussions to acquire Dusan Vlahovic, a former Juventus striker, as a free agent. Vlahovic, who left Juventus in June after his contract expired, has emerged as a top target for several clubs, but Atletico is reportedly his preferred destination. The 26-year-old forward struggled for form at Juventus and is looking for a fresh start. Atletico's interest may hinge on the future of Alexander Sorloth, who is also under consideration from Fenerbahce. Should Sorloth depart, the club could pursue Vlahovic more aggressively.
