Juventus Close to New Contract Deal with €100m Chelsea Target

Juventus are reportedly close to finalizing a new contract with €100m Chelsea target Kenan Yildiz.

The 20-year-old is one of the most exciting young attacking talents in Europe, having scored one goal and provided three assists in his opening four Serie A games.

Yildiz was heavily linked with a move to Chelsea over the summer, with the Premier League side understood to retain an interest ahead of January.

According to Italian outlet Calciomercato, Juve are keen on tying the young talent down to a new long-term contract and an agreement is now ‘drawing closer.’

His current contract isn’t set to expire until the summer of 2029, but Juventus want to extend that deal for at least another year.

Juventus consider Yildiz practically unsellable but several reports have suggested that they would be open to a deal worth around €100m.
