154 lbs for a top-tier '9', Madrid is considering a colossal signing for the attack

Madrid are considering the forward line and want a 'number 9' at a top-tier level, for whom they'll put €70 million on the table

Real Madrid continues to explore options to strengthen their attack for the upcoming season. With the future of several forwards still to be determined and the need to add scoring depth to the squad, management is considering top-level profiles.

One of the names that has gained momentum in recent weeks is Serbian Dusan Vlahovic, current striker for Juventus. At 25 years old, the forward is still considered one of the great prospects in European soccer despite an inconsistent season. The club is considering launching an offensive in the summer with a figure that could reach €70 million.

Juventus is willing to listen to offers due to the need to balance their books and renew their sports project. Although Vlahovic has alternated strong performances with moments of disconnection, his physique, left-footed dominance, and ability to play with his back to goal make him a high-impact option should he land at Santiago Bernabéu.

A bet with trajectory

Real Madrid hasn't made a final decision, but sources close to the club acknowledge that the Serbian's name is on the table. His signing will depend on how other offensive fronts develop, especially regarding possible departures and the integration of new names into the squad.

Meanwhile, Vlahovic remains focused on the Euro Cup with his national team, knowing that the international stage can boost his value. The Serbian has accumulated experience in one of the world's most competitive leagues, Serie A, being essential in the attack for the "Vecchia Signora".

His breakthrough with Fiorentina catapulted him to stardom, and his transfer to Juventus was completed for a figure close to €80 million. Now, he seeks to regain his best form and show that he's ready to take on greater challenges at a club like Madrid.

The superstar for the attack

The board values his youth combined with international experience, as well as his direct style, which would complement the play of figures like Vinícius and Bellingham. If market conditions allow, Vlahovic could become the next great "9" for Real Madrid.
