Juventus, Kenan Yildiz races toward renewal and number 10

Number 10 è free after Pogba’s disqualification

Yildiz will be one of the last to reach the Juventus training camp (end of July). However, the very young Turkish star still decided to find some time for a quick detour to Juventus to talk with Thiago Motta and, whyè no, about the possibility of playing, next year, with the number 10 jersey (free after Pogba’s disqualification).

The Turk è central to the new Bianconeri project, to such an extent that Giuntoli is reportedly working to find a way to extend his current contract (expiring in 2027 with an option for the following year). The idea would be to extend the agreement until June 2029 with a significant salary adjustment.

Added to this is the concrete possibility of entrusting him with the legendary Bianconeri number 10 jersey, which belonged to absolute champions in Juventus history. Yildiz does not seem to have lobbied for them but would be well pleased if the Old Lady were to think of him to play, starting with the 2024/25 season, with the number 10 jersey on his shoulders.

At only 19 years old, Yildiz seems ready to take on Juventus. With Thiago Motta at the helm, the possibility that the young Turk could have even more chances to play è very high. His talent could really come in handy at Juventus, now ready to start a new era with new players and, perhaps, a new number 10.
