Vlahovic, who clicked 22 on Friday, scored 20 goals in 24 appearances in all competitions, in the first half of the 2021/2022 season.
The Serbia international striker scored 41 goals in 64 appearances in his last two seasons at Fiorentina, whom he joined in 2018 from Partizan Belgrade.
He has netted seven times in 14 games for his country.
The towering striker will wear the No.7 jersey vacated by Cristiano Ronaldo.
