The young nugget of Juventus Turin Kenan Yildiz is said to be courted by several major English and German clubs.

After a nightmarish season marked in particular by a withdrawal of 15 points and a suspension from all European competitions this season, the Juventus Turin finds colors. Second in Serie A, the Bianconeri are only two points behind Inter Milan and have not lost since September.

A dazzling explosion

And for several weeks, the young Kenan Yildiz (18 years old) gained playing time and took the opportunity to shine. In his last five matches, the Turkish player has scored three goals including a solo gem against Salernitana and a superb recovery against Frosinone on Thursday. Increasingly convincing performances which have allowed him to start in four of Turin’s last five matches, and which inevitably catch the eye of other major European clubs.

Particularly in England, where the tabloids claim that Liverpool or Arsenal are interested in the young crack of Juve, with whom he is under contract until 2027. But the Old Lady does not intend to let him go so easily and would have rejected the first approaches of the Reds, as indicated in the Gazzetta dello Sport. In Germany, Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig also tried their luck but had little more success.
