Liverpool and Manchester United are reportedly keen on 18-year-old Juventus attacker Kenan Yildiz, a target for Arsenal.
According to a report from Calcio in Pillole, Liverpool and Manchester United have already sounded out a move for Kenan Yildiz. But they will have to compete with Premier League rivals Arsenal. The youngster is valued at €60 million by Juventus, but the Gunners are prepared to pay around €40 million for him.
The versatile Turkish attacker could develop into a key player for all three clubs in the coming seasons, and it will be interesting to see where he ends up. It remains to be seen whether Arsenal come forward with an official approach in the coming months. They will have to pay closer to the €60 million asking price to sign the Turkish sensation at the end of the season.
The 18-year-old is versatile enough to operate as the central attacking midfielder as well as a winger. He can operate as a False Nine as well. He will add goals and creativity to the side if he joins Arsenal.
The Gunners need more depth in the attack. Mikel Arteta has not been able to rotate players like Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli, and Martin Odegaard. He needs more options at his disposal if Arsenal are to compete on multiple fronts. So, it is hardly surprising that Kenan Yildiz has emerged as a target for Arsenal.
Kenan Yildiz could improve all three clubs
The Turkish attacker could be tempted to move to the Premier League, and it remains to be seen whether his suitors come forward with an offer for him. Liverpool could use some attacking depth as well. Mohamed Salah has been linked with a move away from the club at the end of the season, and it remains to be seen whether they decide to bring in a replacement.
At Manchester United, they are already lacking in depth in the final third. Jadon Sancho has been sent out on loan, and Antony has been quite underwhelming. The Red Devils need a quality attacker who can chip in with goals and creativity.
The Turkish youngster would be ideal for all three clubs, and they could help him fulfil his potential in the coming seasons. While the €60 million asking price might seem like a premium, he has the potential to justify the outlay in the coming seasons.
