Liverpool is reportedly considering a $44 million move for a highly talented Juventus wonderkid, with the Turkish forward earning praise for being deemed ‘more talented’ than Cristiano Ronaldo. 

 

Kenan Yıldız, a quick learner, joined Juventus with much excitement in the summer of 2022 from Bayern Munich on a free transfer. Spending a year in Juventus’ youth team, named Juventus Next Gen, Yıldız gained valuable experience in Serie C, where Juventus Next Gen competes as one of the few U23 sides. Despite making 14 appearances for Juve Next Gen, his transition to the first team last summer didn’t initially impress Max Allegri, who gave him a debut in the final minutes of the 3-0 victory against Udinese on the opening day of the season.

 

Allegri identified Yıldız’s hair as a concern, specifically touching it repeatedly during matches.

However, circumstances changed when several forwards faced issues such as poor form or frequent injuries.

In December, Yıldız seized the opportunity and made a notable impact against Frosinone, scoring a remarkable solo goal. Displaying his ball control and the ability to navigate through tight defenses, Yıldız showcased a style reminiscent of Chiesa. Subsequently, he has earned starts in three of Juve’s last four games, contributing to a more dynamic and versatile attack alongside Vlahović, as noted by Allegri.

 

Apart from his left-wing play, Yıldız can also drop deep, switch to a second attack role, and disappear between the lines. When Yıldız starts, Allegri’s 3-5-2 system changes to a 3-5-1-1. Italian media outlets have drawn parallels between the two Juve greats who performed exceptionally well as second attackers while wearing Bianconeri jerseys: Roberto Baggio and Alessandro Del Piero.

Only this past week, Yıldız played Frosinone again in the Coppa Italia, and this time, the team scored another incredible goal—this time, a first-time volley off a floated cross from Weston McKennie. Every time Yıldız touches the ball, Juve supporters get incredibly excited, something that hasn’t happened at the team since Paulo Dybala was at his
