According to Fabrizio Romano, the Italian football giant decided to buy the Polish striker from Olympique Marseille.
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Juventus has completed the permanent purchase of Arkadiusz Milik from Olympique Marseille. The contract is worth 6 million euros, with an additional option of 1 million euros based on the number of appearances of the Polish striker.
In the summer of 2022, Milik joined Juventus on loan with a one-year contract. In the 2022/2023 season, the 29-year-old striker has a convincing performance. Milik contributed 7 goals in Serie A, 2 goals in the Champions League, 4 times in the Europa League.
Juventus’ purchase of Milik is seen as a backup plan in the context of Dusan Vlahovic’s uncertain future. The Serbian striker is likely to part with the Old Lady in the summer of 2023.
Man United, Chelsea, Arsenal have all been linked to Vlahovic recently. The 23-year-old star once received great expectations when he arrived at Juventus. Unfortunately, Vlahovic could not maintain a stable form.
Besides tying down Milik, Juventus planned to add a quality striker. The name that caught the eye of the Italian giant is Folarin Balogun. The American striker spent the explosive 2022/2023 season with Reims on loan from Arsenal.
