Atletico Madrid out-bid Tottenham for Vlahovic
Dusan Vlahovic’s agent is expected in Italy tomorrow for meetings with Fiorentina over a renewal, but also Tottenham and new favourites Atletico Madrid.
According to various reports, representative Darko Ristic will have a series of encounters in Milan on Tuesday.
Intermediaries have already been at work putting forward proposals from other clubs, while his agent continues negotiations with Fiorentina over a new and improved contract.
Tuttomercatoweb maintain if anyone is going to prise Vlahovic away from the Viola, then it’s Atletico Madrid, as they have come closest to the €70m asking price.
Inter are also keeping track of the situation, but will be priced out of the running by their rivals from Spain and England.
Fiorentina President Rocco Commisso is determined not to sell his 21-year-old hitman, but considering he cost just €2m to sign from Partizan Belgrade in 2018, that is becoming an increasingly difficult position to defend.
If the new contract has a release clause of somewhere between €60-70m and that figure is being offered now, then it could tempt the Tuscans into a sale.
