Juventus to Do Whatever Possible to Keep Starlet | OneFootball

Kenan Yildiz was the man on the match in Igor Tudor’s debut on the Juventus bench, looking comfortable in the newly-minted scheme. The Bianconeri need to qualify for the Champions League to avoid having to make sacrifices in the transfer market, including the Turkish talent, La Gazzetta dello Sport informs.

The prodigy has never been for sale. However, their officials are aware that he’d be their most profitable piece. Jorge Mendes has started getting closer to his entourage. The Premier League powerhouses would quickly swoop in if there were an opening.

The summer strategy of Juventus will hinge on making the top four, as, if they don’t, they’ll have to make up for the missed income through sales, and the Yildiz one would solve a lot of problems. The officials would gladly avoid it. Dusan Vlahovic, Andrea Cambiaso, and Samuel Mbangula are more likely candidates.

Their front office wishes not to repeat recent errors, as they gave up some players, primarily Dean Huijsen, too soon and too quickly. In the meantime, the ownership has addressed their economic needs following Thiago Motta’s ousting by injecting €15M into the club, anticipating a future capital increase.

Our Take on Juventus and Yildiz

He should be the last one to go in their squad, and only for a humongous fee. He has shown big flashes, but the consistency isn’t there yet. The suitors would have to be very high on his potential to splurge that much. In any case, they won’t need to sell to break even, but to have resources for major additions. Given how their big-money deals have gone, they should refrain from spending too much on any player, no matter how safe the investment looks on paper.
