- London clubs eyed Yildiz
- يوفنتوس view him as a major prospect
- 20-year-old already a key player
Per a new report from Tuttosport, both أرسنال و تشيلسي were interested in signing Yildiz in the summer, but were unable to extricate him from Turin. Juve are said to believe that the 20-year-old is indispensable, and did not countenance the prospect of moving him on.

Jorge Mendes may well have been behind the moves, as the report claims he is keen to bring Yildiz into his stable of clients. He is currently managed by his father, Engin.
Juventus play انتر Milan on September 13, after the international break. Chelsea and Arsenal are likely to be keeping a close eye on Yildiz’s performance.
