Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic has been discussed internally at Chelsea but the Blues are reluctant to pursue a transfer.

With the Blues expecting Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Romelu Lukaku to leave the club this summer, Vlahovic has been linked with a move to Stamford Bridge in recent weeks.

However, the main stumbling block to the Blues’ pursuit of the Serbian is his salary, according to the Daily Mail via GOAL.

Chelsea believe signing Vlahovic from Juventus will disrupt the club’s new wage structure, with several big names already moved on this summer.

Juventus are willing to sell Vlahovic to Chelsea for £21 million ($27m), if Romelu Lukaku was included in the deal but Chelsea aren’t interested in the deal due to the salary of Vlahovic.
