Having been linked with a move away this summer and courted by clubs including AC Milan, Dušan Vlahović didn't seem to feature in the plans of former coach Igor Tudor, who was ultimately sacked after a poor start to the season . Juventus tried to create competition between him and Kolo Muani last year, and then with Jonathan David and Loïs Openda this season, but he continues to shine brightest in the number 9 role. With three Serie A goals already , he is ahead of Openda (0) and David (1).
After his goal against Udinese (3-1) , Vlahović emphasized the collective responsibility in Tudor's dismissal and didn't rule out a contract extension: "These dismissals are everyone's fault. A renewal? Never say never." John Elkann, CEO of Exor, met with the team to remind everyone of their responsibilities, while the Serbian striker, with 5 goals in all competitions, remains focused on the present and the goal of helping Juventus shine under Luciano Spalletti .
