Aston Villa and Manchester United have reportedly tabled attractive offers to sign Juventus attacking sensation Kenan Yildiz.
Kenan Yildiz’s impressive performances in the Serie A as well as the UEFA Champions League have not gone unnoticed. Multiple top clubs like what they have seen from the Turkish gem, and they are looking to lure him away from Juventus.
According to Corriere dello Sport via Sport Witness, Manchester United have made an interesting offer to the Turkish international. But, they are not the only club interested as Aston Villa have also presented a proposal to Yildiz, according to another report from Corriere via Sport Witness.
Kenan Yildiz was a part of the Bayern Munich youth setup back in the day. Unfortunately, things did not work out for him at the German club, and he ended up joining the Old Lady in the summer of 2022. He got promoted to their first team towards the end of 2023 and has certainly taken some significant steps over the last 12 months.
On the back of his impressive rise, there was a lot of interest in the 19-year-old winger in the summer but Juventus managed to secure his future with a new and improved contract offer. While the current deal runs until the summer of 2029, top European clubs are plotting a raid of the Italian outfit for the Turkish gem.
Premier League clubs to battle for Kenan Yildiz
Juventus have been forced to think of another renewal in 2025 to ensure they hold onto their prized possession. Manchester United and Aston Villa are two clubs who are keen on adding the former Bayern Munich youth product to their squad.
Kenan Yildiz’s performance for Juventus in their Champions League win over Manchester City is one of the major reasons for the increased amount of interest in the teenager. He was on fire against Pep Guardiola’s team, and it has reignited the interest of quite a few top clubs.
As far as the Red Devils are concerned, they seek more quality on the flanks and want to bring in a young player who can help them in the long run. Having seen him put up a show against their rivals, Manchester United are confident that Yildiz could do wonders for them in the long run.
Manchester United have a long-standing interest in him, and they have been closely monitoring his performances this season. The Red Devils have already tried to flatter the Trukish winger with an interesting proposal in recent months.
Aston Villa could rival Manchester United
Aston Villa are also in a similar boat as they have also spent the last few months trying to convince Yildiz about a move to the Premier League. Unai Emery has built quite an interesting project at Villa and he seeks more firepower to keep things going.
The Spanish manager would love to work with a young gem who can feature in multiple positions and can score as well as create. While both Manchester United and Aston Villa have been trying to convince him about a move to England, Juventus will try everything in their power to keep hold of their young star. They won’t want to lose out on one of their best talents.
