Juventus have a difficult task to outclass a fantastic Inter side this season in Serie A. But the black-and-whites look like a mean team capable of returning to the Champions League – and it has a lot to do with their striker Dusan Vlahovic hitting form. The 24-year-old striker used the support from head coach Massimiliano Allegri, inspiration from books and his girlfriend to get back on the scoresheet.There are many elements that can tell the story of Vlahovic’s rebirth in the last 65 days. The Serbian striker went from being on the bench for Frosinone “to find serenity” (23 December) to scoring two goals against the same club this week, this time at the Allianz Stadium. fuck it, vanja bogdanovic edit she fixed our number 9 pic.twitter.com/GWmu7sGCn4— 505 days until Sczsesny’s contract runs out (@not_morata) January 21, 2024 In between, there’s a transformation that is not only reflected in the ten goals he scored. Dusan understood that he needed to trust Juventus to become what Juventus needed: today, he is the striker they can rely on in difficult times, as has been the case recently.The key moment on the field can be traced back to the night of Juve-Roma: inside Allegri’s embrace as the striker left the field. Despite not scoring a goal, he played an excellent game, providing the decisive assist for Adrien Rabiot. Something clicked in Vlahovic’s mind at that moment, sweeping away the bad thoughts of the previous transfer windows and rumours of a possible swap with Romelu Lukaku. The Serb began to feel much more important to the team and the coach. In the search for balance, Allegri was crucial, as he had always asked him to sacrifice more for the team and to improve his defensive phase since last season. The former Fiorentina attacker did the rest by finding more clarity with the care of both phases.##NAJAVA_MECA_7909546##Now he is confident, and even off the field, he is more serene, thanks also to some adjustments compared to his old habits. It seems he has changed some details in his diet and that his new girlfriend, Serbian model Vanja Bogdanovic, gives him greater serenity. He has no intention of stopping, of course. On the contrary, he is ready to read the next book that his friend Gatti will pass him: “How to Get the Best from Oneself and Others” by Anthony Robbins. He will probably devour it in a few days as he did with the last one: “Relentless” by Tim Grover. Also, he now understands that to perform at his best, he must open up more to others and optimize teamwork. From a physical point of view, his current brilliance is the natural result of continuity in strength and postural work that allows him to train with more intensity. A growth that in the past season was limited by problems related to a sports hernia.
