Kenan Yildiz of Juventus, valued at €100 million, has attracted attention from several top European clubs, including Real Madrid and Arsenal. According to Corriere dello Sport, Real Madrid initially expressed interest in Yildiz during the winter of 2025 under coach Xabi Alonso, considering him a top target. However, interest waned after Vinicius Junior's contract situation resolved and Jose Mourinho took charge. Despite this, Yildiz remains on Madrid's radar as one of the potential next Galacticos alongside Erling Haaland.

Arsenal is also monitoring Yildiz's situation, reflecting a similar need for forward options, especially with a recent €40 million investment in Christos Tzolis. Bayern Munich has tracked Yildiz since his departure but faces challenges in making a move due to their current attacking lineup.
Juventus regards Yildiz as untouchable and has structured a new wage deal for him, offering €7 million annually through 2030, in addition to a €6 million signing bonus. However, the club's prospects in the Champions League could influence his future. Failing to secure a top-four finish might open the door to a potential sale, particularly since Juventus recently signed Kerim Alajbegovic for €35 million, who plays in a similar position. Yildiz is currently sidelined due to injury.
