Nicolo Fagioli was supposed to be among the leaders of the new Juventus generation. But inexperience and poor habits have hindered his development before his senior career took off.
Kenan Yildiz will soon extend his contract with Juventus for the second time in a calendar year. He will then part ways with the agency Leaderbrocks, which negotiated the deal, due to divergences about the future plans. The new pact will run until 2028.
Juventus are keeping an eye on a few players in case they can’t come to terms with Federico Chiesa, which would likely lead to his summer departure to avoid a Bosman exit in 2025. Kenan Yildiz would have a larger role, but they’d reinvest the income.
Kenan Yildiz re-upped with Juventus last summer, but the team wishes to reward him for his recent performances and increased role with a new contract. The management is ready to anoint him as a centerpiece of their future. The Turkish starlet has become a regular.
One of the most iconic fixtures in Serie A pits eternal rivals and current league leaders Inter and Juventus against each other. Sunday's encounter at Giuseppe Meazza has massive implications for the Scudetto race, with only a point separating the sides ahead of the kick-off.
Juventus completed two deals in January, signing Tiago Djaló and Carlos Alcaraz without spending a lot. The former was paid €3.5M plus bonuses, while the latter was brought in on an initial loan. They were constrained by the liquidity index.
Juventus might ultimately stand pat if they don’t find a strong midfielder for cheap and simply adapt Kenan Yildiz to the position. The Bianconeri brass and coach Massimiliano Allegri would like to bring in a true difference-maker, but they don’t really have a budget.
Hector Peris Ros, the representative of Kenan Yildiz, addressed his break-out goal and his Juventus plans in an interview: “He came here to score in that fashion, and especially win titles, the Golden Boy and the Champions League with the Bianconeri."
Juventus are gauging the interest in their youngsters through intermediaries. They might decide to pull the trigger and sell one of them if it allows them to bag one of their top midfield targets. Crystal Palace have shown major interest in Matias Soulé.
The Juventus management held a meeting on Thursday to talk strategy ahead of January, where they’ll look for a midfielder and decided to opt for either a six-month loan spell or a proper investment if they managed to sell some youngsters, with Teun Koopmeiners being a priority target in the second case.
Juventus could resort to selling some youngsters to raise money, and they have received a few injuries for Kenan Yildiz. Matias Soulé and Samuel Iling-Junior have also drawn interest from foreign clubs. The Bianconeri could decide to cash in on one or two talents to foot their additions
Kenan Yildiz scored his maiden international goal in his first start with Turkey, celebrating with his tongue sticking out as Juventus legend Alessandro Del Piero did in recent years, mimicking Micheal Jordan. He did it versus Germany, which had tried to convince him to pick them while he was at Bayern Munich.
