Chelsea are ready to battle it out with Manchester United to purchase Juventus wonderkid Kenan Yildiz at the end of the campaign, according to Spanish outlet Fichajes.
Yildiz has made good progress over the past year at the Bianconeri. He managed 21 goal contributions in all competitions last season and has already bagged four goals and two assists this campaign.
His development has caught the eye of elite Premier League clubs and reports claim that Chelsea and United are among English clubs, who have been monitoring him closely in the last few months.
Yildiz is not contemplating a move away from Turin, but given Juventus’ tight financial situation, they could open the door for the attacker’s exit if they receive 80 million pounds on the table.
The Turkish ace started his career as a left winger, but he can also operate from the right wing or in a second striker role. His versatility has undoubtedly impressed the English giants.
