According to Calciomercato, Juventus are keen to renew the contract of Kenan Yildiz and pair him with Victor Boniface next season. Despite attracting interest from across Europe, Juventus are resolute in their stance, deeming Yildiz indispensable to their plans. Sporting Director Giuntoli aims to fortify the Turkish gem’s future at the club, contemplating even greater responsibilities for the upcoming season, including the coveted number 10 jersey, currently worn by the departing Paul Pogba.
According to CM, Yildiz’s swift integration into the hearts of Juventus fans has not gone unnoticed, with clubs like Leipzig, Arsenal, Borussia Dortmund, and Liverpool monitoring the progress of the 2005-born talent. His contributions, including a goal in Serie A and two in the Coppa Italia this season, underscore his burgeoning potential. For Juventus, the priority is clear: to reward Yildiz with an enhanced salary of €1 million per season, coupled with a contract extension until 2029. In pursuit of this goal, Juventus may need to make tough decisions, potentially sacrificing players like Soulè in the transfer market to facilitate Yildiz’s contract terms.
Yet, Juventus’ ambitions don’t end with Yildiz’s contract renewal. Giuntoli’s vision extends to the striking partnership between Yildiz and another burgeoning talent, Victor Boniface, currently plying his trade at Bayer Leverkusen. Following Boniface’s impressive performances this season, Leverkusen values the Nigerian striker at no less than €40 million.
