Kenan Yildiz indispensable for Juventus, who must act fast on new contract | OneFootball

Kenan Yildiz made the difference for Juventus against Bodo/Glimt last night, and we need to clarify a few things about his contract demands.

The Turkish talent came off the bench in Norway and took his team by the hand, showing the right mentality and proposing moves of rare beauty.

It’s true he hasn’t looked sharp the last few games, but a bit of fatigue can happen in a packed fixture list.

Kenan Yildiz demands are not unreasonable

All the theories on his renewal need to be dismantled by looking to the facts.

It is fair that Yildiz has a long contract, but it is also entirely accurate to say that he deserves a vastly superior salary to the deal he is currently on.

We’ve also seen nothing to suggest he made demands on the competitiveness of the Juventus squad, because that is not up to him.

It is natural to point out that, after proving his worth in the iconic Number 10 jersey, he ought to be locked down beyond all doubt.
