Arsenal show interest in Juventus star Kenan Yildiz

By on June 1, 2025

Arsenal are reportedly keeping a close eye on Juventus forward Kenan Yildiz as they look to strengthen their squad this summer.

According to Turkish outlet Turkish-Football, the Gunners have added Yildiz to their shortlist of possible attacking targets.

Arsenal are looking to bounce back after a season where they fell short in both the Premier League and Champions League.

They finished second in the league and exited the Champions League in the semi-finals after a promising run.

With no major trophy once again, Mikel Arteta is keen to reshape his attack for the coming campaign.

Several names have already been linked with a move to the Emirates, including Nico Williams and Bryan Mbeumo.

Antoine Semenyo and Real Madrid’s Rodrygo have also been mentioned as potential options for the Gunners.

Now, Kenan Yildiz has joined the growing list of names being watched by Arsenal scouts ahead of the summer window.

The 19-year-old Turkish international has enjoyed a standout season in Italy with Juventus.

Yildiz is mainly used on the left side of attack but can also play on the right or behind the striker.

This flexibility has made him a valuable asset for Juventus and a great fit for Arteta’s tactical setup.

His technical ability, calmness on the ball, and eye for goal have caught the eye across Europe.

In 33 appearances this season, Yildiz has scored six goals and registered two assists in all competitions.

His consistent performances have helped him become one of the most talked-about young players in Serie A.

The forward is tied to a long-term contract at Juventus that runs until 2029, making a deal more complex.

Reports suggest Juventus value the teenager highly and could demand as much as £86 million for his transfer.

That price tag may raise eyebrows, but Arsenal are not the only English side monitoring the player.

Chelsea, Manchester United, and Liverpool are also said to be interested in signing the rising Turkish star.

With strong competition and a high asking price, Arsenal will need to act wisely if they hope to land Yildiz.

Still, his ability, age, and potential make him an exciting option as the Gunners reshape their attacking line.
