Manchester United’s interest in Juventus, who attacks midfielder Kenan Yildiz, is real, a leading source in Italy has confirmed with one transfer possible if the Turin giants do not qualify for the Champions League in the next season.
The 19-year-old Yildiz has established himself as an important player for Juventus Manager Thiago Motta, but his solid individual form has not translated into results this season because the Bianconeri is in a fight for the qualification of the Champions League. Mottas sequel as a head coach is also far from it.
If Juve has not reached the top competition in Europe -you are sitting one point outside the top 4 with nine games -you will probably have to sell players to compensate for the drop in income, and one of several candidates for sale is Yildiz.
The Turkiye International is considered satisfied with Juve and club officials would also be reluctant to agree on a sale, but there is a growing interest in Yildiz’s services. Reports on Wednesday suggested to involve United who want to capitalize on, and Sky Italy Gianluca di Marzio confirmed that interest is real.
“I would not be surprised if Yildiz could be sacrificed regardless of the qualification because he is the most in demand. There are many teams [interested] Like Manchester United, “he said on Italian television.” His victim could lead to other investments such as Juve last year. “
As a high-rated 19-year-old, whose contract runs until 2029, Yildiz would give a significant fee if he was sold this summer. Juve von Juve calls reports between € 80 million to € 90 million (67 million GBP).
United would have to prepare for the investment in Ruben Amorim’s squad to sell the players to collect this type of money, and midfielder Kobbie Mainoo suspects that they are among those who could be sold to finance a summer structure.
However, Yildiz is not the only player on the Radar of United. The Xavi Simons from RB Leipzig is considered an attacking goal, while the Red Devils also have a four -member selection list of possible striker options if they prepare to fully rejuvenate their squad.
