📈 Juventus starlet climbs the stats ladder with brace against Cagliari | OneFootball

It's been an up-and-down outing for Italian giant Juventus during their Serie A home clash against Cagliari this evening.

First, La Vecchia Signora went a goal down thanks to an opener in the 26th minute from Sebastiano Esposito, only for star striker Dušan Vlahović to be removed due to injury just five minutes later.

But between the goal and the removal of the big Serbian striker, and in the aftermath of yet another injury concern, star Turkish international winger Kenan Yıldız has risen to the occasion for the Old Lady, bagging a brace to put them 2-1 up in Turin.

Despite lingering questions surrounding his future in the north of the country, a brace by the 20-year-old has seen him reach 13 goals for the club, moving him to seventh place and level with Pietro Anastasi among the club's top goalscorers before the age of 21.

Wth Juve looking to get back among the best in the country under new boss Luciano Spalletti, Yıldız is sure to be key for the 36-time Scudetto winners for as long as he remains.
