Manchester United rival Arsenal for transfer of €90m-rated attacker who favors old Trafford move

Although Arsenal is also interested in Kenan Yildiz, an offensive midfielder for Juventus, Manchester United is apparently eager to sign him.

After making an impression in Serie A, the gifted young Turkey international appears to be attracting a lot of interest from Premier League clubs.

Yildiz makes sense as a statement addition to try to launch Ruben Amorim’s United project next season, but it’s unclear if these teams will pay that much for him.

To relieve some of the load on Bukayo Saka, Arsenal, on the other hand, would benefit from some midfield strength this summer.

Could we see Kenan Yildiz moving to the Premier League this summer?

One imagines we’ll hear more speculation about Yildiz in the weeks and months ahead, and this is far from the first time he’s been linked with a move to England

Just last week, Liverpool were also linked with Yildiz in a report from Juve FC, so perhaps this will end up being a three-way battle for the 19-year-old’s signature.

Yildiz has seven goals and four assists in all competitions for club and country so far this season, and it’s clear he has a bright future ahead of him.

Yildiz would surely be an upgrade on misfits like Marcus Rashford, Antony and even the inconsistent Alejandro Garnacho.

Arsenal, meanwhile, could do well to bring Yildiz in as an upgrade on Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard after their slightly indifferent performances this term.
