Despite currently being sidelined through injury, Kenan Yildiz continues to attract significant attention on the transfer market, with his future at Juventus now emerging as a major talking point.
According to Gianluca Di Marzio, speaking to Bet365 News, the Turkish star could become one of the biggest transfer stories in the coming windows.

The Italian journalist revealed that Juventus have already received approaches for Yildiz in the past, including interest from Premier League giants Arsenal and Tottenham.
Premier League Interest Already Arrived
“A possible surprise in the next transfer windows could concern Yildiz’s future,” Di Marzio explained, as reported by TuttoJuve.
“Last summer, there were already offers and requests for information regarding him, which Juventus never considered, reaching three figures, from clubs such as Arsenal and Tottenham.”
The Bianconeri have so far shown no willingness to negotiate their prized No.10. However, Di Marzio believes the situation could become particularly interesting ahead of the next transfer window, especially after Juventus signed young talent Alajbegović, who could potentially develop into Yildiz’s successor.
Yildiz Could Become Juventus’ €150M Man
Di Marzio went even further when discussing Yildiz’s potential market value, suggesting that the 20-year-old could become the next young player to command a transfer fee exceeding €100 million.
“I think the new €100 million player, or rather the new young player worth more than €100 million, could be Yildiz,” Di Marzio stated.

If Juventus were eventually convinced to sell, the journalist believes the figure would be significantly higher than €100 million.
He suggested that a fee of €110m or €120m would not be enough, with a potential deal instead moving closer to €150 million.
For now, Juventus continue to consider Yildiz a central figure for the future. But if interest from Europe’s biggest clubs intensifies, his name could become one of the biggest stories of the upcoming transfer windows.
