A number of top clubs are keen to sign the Turkish treasure and, according to Pete O&#8217;Rourke via Football Insider, Liverpool are in the race to sign him.<\/p>\n<p>Tottenham are also interested in signing Yildiz.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Liverpool_interested_in_Kenan_Yildiz\"><\/span>Liverpool interested in Kenan Yildiz<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The Merseyside club are keeping an eye on him and could try to poach him in 2026. A winter transfer is highly unlikely as Juventus don&#8217;t want to lose him, but it looks like the Reds will try their luck next year.<\/p>\n<p>Yildiz has played in 13 games in all competitions, contributing 7 goals. The 20-year-old has become one of the Turin-based club&#8217;s mainstays and is under contract until the summer of 2029, but could end up pushing for a move if the club do not match his ambitions.<\/p>\n<p>Yildiz loves life at Juventus, but he will only stay at the club if they win important titles and qualify for the Champions League. Even if the Old Lady fail to deliver, a club like Liverpool could make the most of it.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"ORourke_talks_about_Ildis_suitor\"><\/span>O&#8217;Rourke talks about Ildis&#8217; suitor<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kenan Yildiz reacts during the Juventus vs. Udinese match (Photo by Valerio Pennicino\/Getty Images)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Coach O&#8217;Rourke said of Yildiz&#8217;s future: &#8220;It&#8217;s no surprise that there is no lack of interest in Yildiz, who is one of the most highly rated young players in Europe.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s not just Liverpool who are interested.
