The chase for one of European football's most promising talents is heating up, with Arsenal now positioning themselves in the pursuit of Juventus's 20-year-old sensation, Kenan Yildiz.

As reports indicate, officials from the London club have initiated discussions, reaching out to both the Turin-based hierarchy and the player's representatives to gauge the possibility of a transfer. This budding interest, however, is met with firm resistance from Juventus. Determined to secure the future of their rising star, "The Old Lady" is proactively preparing a new and improved contract offer.

Any club hoping to pry Yildiz away from Serie A will be faced with a significant financial hurdle. Persuading Juventus to part with the winger is believed to require a bid in the region of €80 million—a figure that could potentially climb to €100 million should his impressive performances continue.

The young Turkish international has already begun to justify such a substantial valuation this season. In a mere six appearances, he has found the net twice and created four more goals for his teammates.

Yildiz is swiftly building a reputation for his penchant for spectacular long-range efforts, having already scored from outside the area against top-tier opposition like Inter and Borussia Dortmund.
