Chelsea were showing interest in young Turkish attacker. But, later the talks cooled down in the market. Now, the Blues are said to have joined the race for him again. The player is likely to cost €100 million in the transfer window.
Chelsea are keen to sign some new attackers. They have signed Liam Delap as a new striker. Now, the club wants a wide forward and left winger. As for the winger position, they have Jamie Gittens as the top target. The Englishman is also keen to join them and hence a deal can get over the line very soon.
Earlier, Chelsea were also linked with one Turkish player. The star in question is Kenan Yildiz of Juventus. He is 20 years old and can play in variety of position. Firstly, he mainly plays as left winger but can also play on right wing. In addition, he can also play as attacking midfielder.
Later, the talks about Chelsea wanting to sign Yildiz cooled up. The Blues started to show interest in other stars like Jamie Gittens. In addition, they were also keen to sign Alejandro Garnacho. But, the linking between them and Yildiz has once again sparked as per new reports.
Chelsea re-enter the race for Kenan Yildiz
According to JuveFC, the Blues have re-ignited their interest in Yildiz. The 20 year old is now being monitored along with several others. But, Juventus have no intention to part ways with Yildiz. They are very happy with him but this does not guarantee that he stays in Turin.
Juve are willing to listen to the offers of around €100 million. Despite making the Turkish star untouchable, their financial situation can force them to sell him if a high offer is being made. The player can also be tempted to leave as the Old Lady will miss UCL football next season.
Yildiz has been very good for Juve in the recent season. He has played on variety of positions and has always been threat for opposition. He scored 10 goals and picked 6 assists in 49 games for Juve. In addition, he has been regular started for Turkey national team who he has represented on 21 occasions so far.
