Manchester United has taken the first steps toward signing Juventus’ rising star Kenan Yildiz. The English powerhouse has reportedly initiated contact with both Juventus and the player’s representatives, positioning the young Turkish international as a prime target for the upcoming transfer window.
According to a report from Team Talk, Manchester United is prepared to make a record-breaking offer for the 19-year-old forward. Sources indicate that the Premier League club could submit a bid in the region of €90 million ($96.3 million) to secure Yildiz’s services.
Yildiz has been one of Juventus’ most promising talents this season, featuring in 41 matches and contributing 6 goals and 4 assists. His performances have caught the attention of Europe’s top clubs, but Manchester United appears determined to lead the race for his signature.
Despite United’s strong interest, Juventus holds the upper hand in negotiations, as Yildiz remains under contract with the Italian giants until 2029.
However, a record-breaking offer could test the resolve of the Serie A club.
