Arsenal returns to look at Juventus and the name is always the same: Kenan Yildiz.
The Gunners, after receiving the final negative answer for Julian Alvarez, are evaluating several alternatives for the offensive department and among them, as “Tuttosport” writes, is the Turkish talent, “Gazeta Express” reports.
The interest is not new at all and may soon turn into a concrete move, with the Englishmen willing to put a figure close to 100 million euros on the table.
A prospect that, from an economic point of view, could tempt Juventus, which needs to collect money from players who are no longer part of the plans and reduce a team that still needs to be modeled.
But Yildiz is an exception. The number 10 of Juventus is considered by the club as a technical and identity asset, but also as the main investment for the future.
His importance is also confirmed by the extension of the contract until 2030, accompanied by a salary of a high-level player, proving the will of the club to build the new Juventus project around him.
Arsenal, however, does not seem ready to give up. Yildiz is particularly liked by Mikel Arteta, who considers the Turk an ideal profile for the “Gunners”.
Juventus, on the other hand, wants to remain faithful to the original plan and has no intention of selling the Turk.
To change the situation, it would be necessary above all the will of the player himself, who has so far repeatedly reiterated his connection with the club.
Yildiz remains one of the main points of the project of Juves, while Arsenal continues to closely monitor the situation and may try to convince the club in white again with a significant offer.
For the moment, however, Juventus’ position is clear: Kenan Yildiz is not for sale.
