Marca news, although Juve is about to officially announce the signing of Vlahović (has passed the medical examination), Barca is still difficult to be optimistic about this month's acquisition of Morata, because to complete the deal, Barca still have many obstacles to overcome.
The first is dembele's presence, which is reported to be in talks with Morata, Juve and Atletico, but the Red and Blues cannot sign the striker until Dembele agrees to a salary cut or leaves the team; another problem is that despite signing Vlahović, Allegri has stated that he wants Morata to stay at Juve until the end of the season, of course, with the addition of the Serbian, the competition for Juve's forward line will be more intense.
In addition, Atletico's position cannot be ignored, Barca hope to be able to loan Morata for 6 months or more, but Atletico do not want to strengthen their direct rivals.
Finally, Barca also face competition from other teams, and if Juve decides to release Espanyol, It is reported that Tottenham and Newcastle are also interested in joining Morata.
According to Sky Sports, Bruno Guimarães will attend a medical examination in Brazil on Friday local time before joining Newcastle.
Newcastle and Lyon have reached an agreement on Guimarães' £33m plus floating transfer fee, and Arsenal, Manchester United and Paris were previously considered interested in the 24-year-old midfielder, but now it seems that Newcastle is close to completing the deal.
Guimarães has played in 25 games for Lyon this season, contributing six assists, and the Brazilian has now played in three games for the national team.
Juve officials confirmed on Friday evening Beijing time that Vlahović was already attending a medical examination in Turin and that the deal was about to be officially completed.
According to media reports, Vlahović's transfer fee is 70 million euros plus 5 million floating, and the striker's annual salary is 7 million euros.
