Reports in Italy claim an irritable Dusan Vlahovic hit back at insults from a single fan in Curva Sud, but his angry reaction sparked a furious response from the entire sector.
Juventus were held to a 2-2 home draw by strugglers Venezia on Saturday, and their star striker Vlahovic hit back at insults from fans after the final whistle.
More details about the angry confrontation emerged on Sunday morning, with IlBianconero claiming that Vlahovic hit back at two or three fans who had insulted him.
According to journalist Giovanni Albanese, just one fan initially insulted Vlahovic, causing his angry reaction.

Vlahovic’s answer angered the rest of Curva Sud, who chanted insulting words at the Serbian forward.
At that point, Vlahovic left the pitch holding up a sarcastic thumb.
Juventus coach Thiago Motta said after the game that fans have the freedom to express their feelings, although they should always be respectful and avoid insults.
Vlahovic is Juventus’ best scorer this season, with 11 goals in 19 appearances across all competitions. His contract expires in June 2026.
