Arsenal and Liverpool have both shown interest in signing Kenan Yildiz of Juventus after watching him excel with them over the past season. Yildiz’s stunning performances at Juve has caught both clubs’ eyes as they aim to sign him this summer.
Insiders familiar with the situation have reported Arsenal’s keen interest in Yildiz as they look for players that will help share Bukayo Saka’s workload, while Liverpool sees him as potential replacement for Mohamed Salah if and when his contract runs out next summer.
Yildiz recently committed his future to Juventus by signing a new contract until 2029, signalling his contentment at the Turin-based club. This development makes any transfer negotiation more challenging, yet the allure of the Premier League could pose a tempting proposition for the player.
What Next for Kenan Yildiz?
Given his newly signed contract, prying Yildiz away from Juventus will not be straightforward for Arsenal or Liverpool. However, the Premier League’s attraction often proves hard to resist for many top talents. Yildiz’s situation remains one to watch, especially if either club fails to secure their primary targets.
Juventus fans and club will no doubt wish to retain him for as long as possible, having seen three goals scored and two assists already this year from him.
Yildiz presents both Arsenal and Liverpool with an intriguing option, though his potential addition would provide either team with something fresh and dynamic – providing Liverpool a capable replacement for Salah while giving Arsenal another talent that complements Saka.
