Arsenal are ramping up their interest in Juventus sensation Kenan Yildiz, with Mikel Arteta reportedly keen to beat rivals Chelsea and Manchester City to the punch this summer.
According to Fichajes, the Gunners are optimistic about their chances of securing the 19-year-old Turkish international, who has rapidly become one of Serie A’s most exciting attacking prospects. Juventus have slapped a hefty €90 million price tag on Yildiz, but could be tempted to sell if offers exceed expectations.
Yildiz: A Rising Star Drawing Premier League Eyes
Since arriving at Juventus, Yildiz has risen swiftly through the ranks, showcasing his flair, intelligence, and positional versatility. Comfortable across various attacking roles, he fits the profile Arteta values — dynamic, adaptable, and full of potential.
Despite his commitment to the Bianconeri project, Yildiz is increasingly on the radar of Europe’s elite. Manchester City and Chelsea are both circling, with Pep Guardiola believed to be a strong admirer of the young star.
Can Arsenal Get the Deal Over the Line?
While Arsenal have their eyes firmly set on signing a top-tier striker this summer, the allure of adding a future superstar like Yildiz is hard to ignore. The €90 million price tag is steep, especially with competing priorities, but if Arteta makes a move, the Gunners could leap ahead in the race.
The question remains — will Arsenal gamble on potential, or go all in for an elite No.9?
