Dusan Vlahovic was involved in a public fallout with Juventus manager Max Allegri during the club’s Serie A game against Genoa.
Vlahovic appeared to be involved in an angry exchange with Allegri after he was sent off in stoppage time of the goalless draw. The Serbian was dismissed after picking up two bookings on a disappointing afternoon for Juventus, before taking out his frustration on the referee and head coach.
Allegri was incensed with Vlahovic’s public demonstration of disregard and has confirmed the forward will be fined for his actions.

Europe’s leading clubs will be closely monitoring the situation should relationships not be repaired, with Arsenal long-term admirers of the 24-year-old. Arsenal made an attempt to sign Vlahovic before his €70m move to Juventus from Fiorentina in January 2022.
The Gunners remain interested in signing a centre-forward in the summer and could reignite their interest if Vlahovic seeks an exit.
Vlahovic has scored 38 goals in 90 appearances since signing for the Bianconeri and is in the midst of his most productive campaign since arriving in Turin. He has scored 15 league goals for Juventus this season, with only Inter Milan’s Lautaro Martinez having scored more in Serie A.
