Man Utd target Juventus striker who could leave for the Premier League on one condition

Manchester United are reportedly battling it out with Premier League rivals for Juventus winger Kenan Yildiz in the summer

Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City are also in the hunt for the player who has made 22 starts in Serie A and eight starts in the Champions League for the Bianconeri this season.

But he has not had a particularly good time in recent weeks, with Juventus head coach Thiago Motta not using the winger regularly.

After Juventus’s elimination from the Champions League, several top clubs have made it known that they are interested in signing the Turkey international winger in the summer transfer window.

Sources have told TEAMtalk that clubs including Man Utd, Manchester City, Liverpool and Arsenal have shown interest in a summer deal for Yildiz.

To date, there are no advanced talks with clubs in the Premier League only gathering information and making initial contacts.

However, should the opportunity arise, then all the big clubs in England are ready to make concrete moves for Yildiz, who is valued at €90million (£75.7m, $98m).

If the new coach prioritises youth development and guarantees him a key role, then Yildiz – who is very happy in Turin on a personal level – may opt to stay, and this is his preferred option.

Otherwise, especially if Motta was to stay on as the Juventus boss, then he would become a very interesting opportunity for clubs, such as Man Utd.

Man Utd are said to be open to selling Kobbie Mainoo this summer, but former Man City financial adviser Stefan Borson believes that the Red Devils could struggle to offload him.

The Italian media has reported that Rasmus Hojlund will leave United, with Napoli interested in signing the striker.

Meanwhile, Sky Germany journalist Florian Plettenberg has revealed that United are active in terms of signing a new striker. He noted: 'Manchester United are looking to strengthen their attack in the summer and are intensively scouting the market.'

November 2023 – Yildiz scored his first international goal for Turkey in a 3-2 defeat against Germany.

December 2023 – He scored his first Serie A goal for Juventus in a 2–1 win over Frosinone, making him the club’s youngest foreign goalscorer in Serie A at the age of 18 years and 233 days.

May 2024 – The 19-year-old won the first major trophy of his career after making a substitute appearance in the 2023/24 Coppa Italia final win over Atalanta.

July 2024 – He made five appearances for Turkey at Euro 2024 and helped the country reach the quarter-finals.

August 2024 – Yildiz signed a new contract at Juventus and was given the No 10 shirt, following in the footsteps of Alessandro Del Piero, Paul Pogba and Paulo Dybala.

September 2024 – He marked his Champions League debut with a goal in a 3-1 win over PSV Eindhoven. The goal made him the youngest-ever goalscorer for Juventus in the Champions League, beating the record set by Del Piero."

January 2025 – Yildiz scored for Juventus in the Supercoppa Italiana semi-final, but couldn’t help them avoid defeat.
