Chelsea are interested in signing Juventus attacker Kenan Ildis during the January transfer period.
According to Football Insider, Chelsea wanted to sign players during the summer transfer period, so they submitted an offer of £70 million to sign him. However, Bruce was unable to complete the transaction.
Return to Kenan Ildis Chelsea
They are looking for a return for him in the future. The report argues that January’s moves are difficult for players. At 20, he is highly regarded throughout Europe and has a bright future. He was able to develop into a top-class player at the club. Juventus wouldn’t want to sell a key player like him anytime soon. It remains to be seen whether Chelsea are ready to seduce them with a favorable proposal.
The 20-year-old has an attribute that will develop into a future star, and Chelsea will do well to secure his signature. Even if they have to pay him the premium, the contract may be worth it in the long term.
Can Chelsea provide enough game time for Yildiz?
Türkiye International can operate at Front 3 and could be a quality acquisition of Chelsea. But they may find it difficult to accommodate him in the starting lineup.
They have multiple offensive players, and the 20-year-old doesn’t want to join a club where he doesn’t become a regular starter. It is still unknown how the situation will develop. Even if Chelsea persuades Juventus to sell the player, they will have to sell the project to the player. They must provide him with a clear path for his development.
Either way, January’s move seems very difficult, and Chelsea may have to wait until the summer transfer window to close the deal.
