Salah among high-profile free agents available this summer

With the new football season looming and European qualifying campaigns underway, a notable group of high-profile players are currently without clubs. French newspaper L’Équipe has highlighted these free agents, presenting a market filled with attractive options for teams seeking proven talent, experienced professionals, or potential bargain signings.

Among the most sought-after attacking players is former Juventus striker Dušan Vlahović. The Serbian forward, who recently turned 26, scored an impressive 68 goals in 168 appearances for the Italian giants. Also on the list is Mohamed Salah, 34, who departed Liverpool after joining in 2017. While his next move remains unannounced, his agent has reportedly downplayed links to Turkish club Beşiktaş.

Other prominent names include Jadon Sancho and John Stones, both of whom experienced difficult seasons. Sancho spent last season on loan at Aston Villa, managing only one goal in 29 appearances. Stones, meanwhile, struggled for consistent playing time at Manchester City, largely due to recurring injury issues.

Experienced defender David Alaba, 34, is also seeking a new challenge after a five-season tenure at Real Madrid. Alaba boasts an impressive career record, including four Champions League titles. However, his recent international involvement has been hampered by injury problems, potentially impacting his immediate prospects.
