Arsenal, Tottenham and Chelsea remain interested in signing Juventus striker Kenan Yildiz.
The 20-year-old is currently one of the best young players in Europe and in football, so it’s no wonder that several top teams are interested in him. Juventus hope to agree a new contract with the player, but have not yet been able to meet his demands.
According to a report from TEAMtalk, the player is asking for a salary of £5 million per season. Arsenal, Tottenham and Chelsea certainly have the resources to offer him a premium contract and it will be interesting to see if the player is ready for a move to the Premier League.
Losing a player like him would be a big blow to the Italian team. However, resources are limited.
On the other hand, Arsenal, Tottenham and Chelsea could use more quality players on the flanks. They need a dynamic attacker like Yildiz who can function anywhere in the front three. He will add goals and creativity to the team. He is considered a world-class talent and with the right guidance could develop into a future superstar.
Joining a Premier League club could be ideal for him as well. He will be competing at the highest level and playing alongside elite players. All three Premier League clubs have successfully developed young players in the past, and this could play a role in the Turkish national team’s development.
It will be interesting to see which of the three clubs makes an offer to finalize the contract. They should do everything they can to take advantage of his contract situation and sign him. It would be a solid long-term investment for them.
