According to Italian media reports, Juventus forward Dusan Vlahovic allegedly received death threats before engaging in a heated exchange with fans following the team’s recent 2-2 draw against Venezia in Serie A.

Despite scoring a crucial penalty in stoppage time to salvage a point for Juventus, Vlahovic became involved in an intense confrontation with some supporters at the Allianz Stadium on Saturday. The Serbian striker later took to social media to address the incident, urging fans to remain united in their support of the team during this challenging period.

In his Instagram statement, Vlahovic acknowledged the frustration felt by supporters due to recent results but emphasized the importance of unity. He expressed gratitude for the fans’ ongoing support and reaffirmed his commitment to giving his all for the club.

Italian newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that insults and death threats were allegedly directed at Vlahovic from the Curva Sud section of the stadium, which may explain his strong reaction. The incident is now reportedly under investigation by local authorities, who are reviewing CCTV footage to identify any potential offenders.

This confrontation highlights the growing tensions between Juventus players and some sections of the fanbase as the team struggles to meet expectations in Serie A this season. The incident serves as a reminder of the intense pressure faced by players at top clubs and the need for improved communication and understanding between athletes and supporters.
