Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing the Juventus attacker Kenan Yildiz.
The 20-year-old is one of the finest young talents in football right now, and his performances have attracted the attention of the London club. They are prepared to make a move for him if he becomes available in January or at the end of the season.
Dean Jones revealed (h/t CaughtOffside): “I really think Spurs will seek to make some of the biggest signings in their history. They have to be careful as part of that because there will be a chance that with new investment comes a new premium that you are asked to pay for talent. But if the likes of Rodrygo at Real Madrid or Yildiz at Juve become a genuine possibility in January or in the summer, then I think Spurs will put themselves in the picture.”
Tottenham could use Kenan Yildiz
They could certainly use more creativity and cutting-edge in the final third. The 20-year-old is naturally a wide player, but he can operate centrally as well. He has all the attributes to develop into a world-class player. Tottenham would do well to secure his signature. They are looking to build a formidable squad for the future, and they need to sign elite young talents like Yildiz.
It remains to be seen how the situation develops. Juventus will not want to lose the player easily. Even if they decide to sell him, they are likely to demand a substantial amount of money. The highly rated attacker has been labelled as “an extraordinary player” recently.
Yildiz would be an asset for Spurs
It would be a major coup for Tottenham if they managed to get the deal across the line. The Turkish international has the attributes to develop into a future star, and he could be an asset for Spurs in the long term. Despite being only 20, he is good enough to complete the level, and he will be able to make an immediate impact as well. The opportunity to move to England could be exciting for him. It remains to be seen whether Tottenham follow up on their interest with an official proposal in the coming months.
