Reports Fenerbahce preparing bid for Juventus's Vlahovic

Saturday's reports claim that the Turkish giants are prepared to offer around €30m to Juventus, who are seeking a fee in the region of €40m for Vlahovic this summer.

The Serbian, who will be entering the final year of his Bianconeri contract this summer, is also set to be offered around €10m per season in wages from Fenerbahce according to La Gazzetta dello Sport.
Vlahovic has been earning around €10.5m per season on his current Juventus contract, which is set to rise to €12m for the final year of his deal in 2025-26.
That is the same contract that he signed at the time of his €85.35m move from Fiorentina back in the winter transfer window in 2022.
La Gazzetta dello Sport claims that the €30m offer set to be offered to Juventus by Fenerbahce will be an enticing offer given the lack of interest from elsewhere and the fact that it brings the opportunity to shed €12m from the team's wage bill next season.

Arsenal: Morgan Rogers, Rodrygo and Gunners' latest plan for overhaul of attack this summer
Arsenal are admirers of Morgan Rogers - but they would face a fight to land the Aston Villa star this summer. The Gunners are in the market for attacking reinforcements during the upcoming transfer window and they want to sign a wide forward, as well as a striker. Advertisement Arsenal are tracking a number of targets and Rogers is believed to be a player that the recruitment team at the club like. A deal for the 22-year-old, however, will be tough to complete as Villa view him as a key part of their plans. Rogers was a top performer for the club last season and finished the campaign with 10 goals and eight assists in 37 Premier League games. The attacking midfielder has shone under Unai Emery and, in December of last year, spoke glowingly about working under him. 'Him (Emery) and Pep [Guardiola] are kind of similar in a way,' Rogers told TNT Sports. 'In terms of the way they structure their teams, in terms of the way that they're so demanding of you, structurally and tactically. Advertisement 'But obviously working closer with Unai Emery than I did obviously with Pep, we've got that relationship where it's like a love-hate kind of thing. Morgan Rogers was a standout performer for Aston Villa last season (REUTERS) 'He wants the best of me. He's going to be demanding. He's going to be on top of me non-stop throughout the week, because he knows my capabilities. 'He knows what I can do. He wants to push me, wants to improve me and that's the best way for me. With me and him, it's perfect.' Arsenal have looked at several attacking targets and they are long-term admirers of Athletic Bilbao winger Nico Williams. Leroy Sane could be available on a free transfer if he refuses to sign a new contract with Bayern Munich, but his wage demands may prove problematic. Advertisement Rodrygo has also been linked with Arsenal over the past week, however whether he is available this summer will only become clearer once he has held talks with new Real Madrid boss Xabi Alonso. If Rodrygo does come on the market, he would likely attract interest from a host of clubs from all over Europe.
