Chelsea Send Clear Message in Pursuit of Arsenal, PSG Target | OneFootball

PSG have made it clear in recent transfer windows that their focus is on long-term growth, targeting young players with high potential. This summer, their standout signing was Khvicha Kvaratskhelia from Napoli, giving the team another dynamic option to support their rising core.

Kvaratskhelia now links up with a promising Paris squad that already features Willian Pacho and Joao Neves. The club could also look back to Serie A in the future to further strengthen their roster.

A recent report from La Gazzetta dello Sport noted that agent Jorge Mendes met with the family of Turkish talent Kenan Yıldız, with interest in the Juventus forward quickly mounting. Manchester City, Chelsea, and PSG were all reportedly prepared to consider offers in the €80 million to €90 million range.

Although no transfer occurred during the summer window, PSG’s interest in Yıldız appears far from over.

TEAMtalk reports that Chelsea are now the clear frontrunners to land Yıldız. Moreover, the club has been actively monitoring him, sending scouts to Juventus matches, engaging in private talks with his representatives, and presenting Yıldız with an attractive offer.

As for the transfer price, the report states that the fee is expected to cost around £80 million. The news from TEAMtalk comes after Arsenal reportedly sent scouts to watch Yıldız in Juventus’ Serie A match against AC Milan on Sunday, according to Tuttosport.

Furthermore, Fichajes recently noted that Juventus are making it clear Yıldız won’t come cheap. The club values him between €80 million and €100 million, with some Italian sources suggesting the price could climb to €100 million–€120 million if talks move forward.

On top of that, Juventus are reportedly planning to extend Yıldız’s contract to fend off future interest. His current deal runs through 2029, and the club views him as a cornerstone of their long-term plans.
