Arsenal Are Exploring A Move For This Juventus Winger: What Will He Add To Arteta’s Side? | OneFootball

In a recent report, TuttoJuve claimed that Arsenal are exploring a move for Juventus winger Kenan Yildiz this month. It has been stated that the Gunners are planning to move in for the Turkish wide player in this transfer window.

Yildiz’s Impressive Form In Turkish Football

Yildiz enjoyed a good run of form at the Turin club in the previous campaign after he produced a string of impressive displays for them on the offensive end of the field. The 21-year-old scored ten goals and secured six assists in 36 matches for Juventus last season in the league.

The Turkey international is currently among the most talented wingers in the Super Lig. Hence, it is no surprise that the Gunners are still trying to sign him in this transfer period.

His current contract at the Italian club will run out in the summer of 2030, which could make it tough for Arsenal to land him on a cut-price deal later this year.

What Will Yildiz Add To Arsenal Boss Mikel Arteta’s Side?

Yildiz excels at finding a yard of space for himself to get some strikes in at goal. He can shoot the ball with power from long range and has the vision to create a few meaningful openings for others around him in the final third.

The Turkish talent is a good dribbler with the ball at his feet and can contribute by scoring and creating a handful of important goals for his team. Yildiz is primarily a left winger but can also operate in the number ten position or play as a striker down the middle if told to do so. However, there are some concerns over whether he can adapt to the physicality and high intensity of the Premier League if the Gunners manage to bring him on board this month.

We can expect Yildiz to add more quality and depth to Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta’s frontline. He has what it takes to fight for a regular starting role at the North London club in the coming seasons.

At 21, the future looks bright for Yildiz as long as he continues to improve with each year. However, Arteta has to be patient with his progress before he can get the best out of the Turkish wing wizard in England.
