The Fiorentina striker absent in Cagliari: Covid's fault or preparations for the winter escape? Juventus is pushing for it in the next few days: and in the meantime the viola fans on social media are losing patience

TOMMASO SILVI
JANUARY 24, 2022
FLORENCE . The mystery, the shadow of the arch rival on the horizon and a countdown. With the risk of seeing a film already seen in Florence. With Roberto Baggio first (in 1990), then with Federico Chiesa. It is the synthesis of the "Vlahovic case". Jewel of Fiorentina and desire of Juventus. In Europe, many want it. But increasingly insistent rumors tell that he has already made the choice: he wants the black and white shirt. Colors that bring bubbles to the purple fans, in the name of a football "war" with very ancient roots. In short, Vlahovic at Juve is a highly probable scenario. Now the real crux is figuring out when this will all come true. And it's not a detail. Indeed, it is a fundamental point of the intrigue that makes the Florence-Turin axis incandescent.

THE MYSTERY


Yesterday Vlahovic did not take part in the trip to Cagliari with Fiorentina. Officially, the club did not explain the reasons for the failure to call, limiting itself to letting it be known that there are two team members who are positive at Covid. What kept the Serbian striker at home - 17 league goals so far - remains a mystery. In the meantime, however, the gossip of the negotiations has begun to hit hard on an alleged strong will of Juventus to bring Vlahovic to the court of Mr. Allegri before the closing of the winter parenthesis of the market, set for January 31st.

THE HYPOTHESIS

First of all, it is good to remember that Vlahovic's contract with the Viola club expires in June 2023. Translated: the sooner Fiorentina manages to sell him, the more money they can earn from the sale. The approaching expiration of the agreement goes hand in hand with the decline in the value of the player. Juventus knows this well, and that is why they would be ready to make an offer to be presented in the last week of the transfer market. There is talk of a figure between 30 and 40 million, with the inclusion of the offensive winger Kulusevski, who would reinforce the Fiorentina squad. For the Juventus management it would be a real blow. But be careful. Because if the deal doesn't close shortly, the Old Lady could return to Vlahovic's assault in the summer.

"REST, MAYBE NOT"

«We have not received offers for the moment, but we are open to everything. We want clarity from you. From the player as from his entourage ». This was said yesterday by Joe Barone, the general manager of Fiorentina. And to think that until a few days ago from the purple environment leaked certainty about Vlahovic's stay in Florence until the end of the championship. But in the last few hours something seems to have changed. The pressing of Juventus seems to have become pounding. But not only. And Italian yesterday to Sky said: "I don't know what's on his mind and I don't even want to go into it."

"I WANT TO GO AWAY"

That Vlahovic does not see his future at Fiorentina is no secret. The player in recent months has rejected a rich proposal to renew the contract from the club. Now, however, it seems that the center forward has also revised his position regarding the moment of farewell. To put it simply, it seems that Vlahovic has made it clear - more or less clearly at the moment it is not possible to know - at the top of Fiorentina that he wants to leave immediately. Already now, in January. Just as it seems clear that the team he wants to play for is Juventus. Meanwhile, the silence is deafening. There are no official communications from the parties involved in the affair. But the question is enriched by the "Cagliari mystery". That the Serbian is already packing his bags for Turin? Maybe. For sure the Viola fans are running out of patience.And on social media the "disappointment" of the lily people emerges overwhelmingly.
