Boksic: Juventus striker Vlahovic can match Haaland

Former Juventus star Alen Boksic is convinced by the potential of Dusan Vlahovic.

Boksic is a big fan of the Serb.

He told La Gazzetta dello Sport: "He is an excellent striker and is only 24 years old. He showed quality between Fiorentina and Juve. Dusan can become a top player like Haaland. But I never like comparisons. And in any case it is more difficult for a centre forward to score in Italy than in England.

"An attacker always depends on the teammates he has behind him. Well, I was lucky: I turned back and saw Zidane, Jugovic, Deschamps, Conte... And next to me I had Del Piero or Vieri.

"Dusan, on the other hand, plays in a more wait-and-see Juve and with difficulty creating play."
