Arsenal have entered the race for the services of the 18-year-old Juventus attacking sensation Kenan Yildiz.
According to a report by Tutto Sport, Arsenal are interested in acquiring the services of Kenan Yildiz. The 18-year-old sensation has made quite a name for himself on the back of his impressive performances and there is a lot of interest in him from across Europe.
Yildiz was a part of the Bayern Munich youth academy for a decade before he decided to join the youth ranks of Juventus in the summer of 2022. He has since come up the ranks and was promoted to their first team last month.
While certain clubs have been following the 18-year-old for a while, he recently came into the limelight on the back of his impressive performances for the Turkish national team. The Juventus forward scored on his international debut and has backed it up with two quality performances.
His impressive performances have attracted the attention of Premier League clubs and they could try to prise him away from Juventus in the upcoming transfer window. Arsenal and Liverpool are both keen on having him in their ranks.
The Merseyside club are looking to further bolster their attack as they look to push for the league title once again. They already have some quality forwards but the Reds want to add more depth and they want to sign someone who can help them in the long run. Yildiz could be a perfect fit for Jurgen Klopp’s team.
But, Arsenal seem to be more interested in him and they could make a move in the upcoming transfer window. Mikel Arteta is keen on attacking reinforcement as he looks to do one better than he and his team did last time out.
He is a big admirer of the teenager and feels the Turkish international could help them for years to come. Given his talent and recent performances, he can have a big role at the club right from the start.
While Juventus were in no moods to sell when clubs made a move for him in the summer, their stance could change in the winter. Meanwhile, his value has tripled and if the right offer arrives, the Old Lady could use those funds to reinforce their squad.
