Juventus have sent a clear message over Kenan Y\u0131ld\u0131z, with Luciano Spalletti insisting that Arsenal, or anyone else, can bid as much as they like without changing the club\u2019s position this season.<\/p>\n
The Arsenal pursuit comes after the club had also monitored Vin\u00edcius J\u00fanior, while interest has been linked with Bradley Barcola and Morgan Rogers, who instead chose Chelsea. With the summer window closing in just nine days, Arsenal are still searching for a player who can improve a squad built around existing title winners and keep them moving towards a Premier League dynasty and Champions League success.<\/p>\n
Spalletti made his view plain when speaking to reporters in Italy.<\/p>\n
\u201cI experience it calmly because the player is Y\u0131ld\u0131z. From my point of view, it\u2019s simple, they can offer whatever they want,\u201d Spalletti told reporters in Italy.<\/p>\n
\u201cI want to be able to field Y\u0131ld\u0131z this season.\u201d<\/p>\n
Y\u0131ld\u0131z, still only 21, has become Juventus\u2019 leading name over the past two seasons. The German-born winger left Bayern Munich in 2022 after a decade in their academy, joining Turin at 17 before establishing himself as a starter two years later.<\/p>\n
Spalletti also stressed that the forward is not pushing to leave and that discussions around his future can be handled calmly.<\/p>\n
“Y\u0131ld\u0131z is a guy who is perfect to have mature conversations with. And consequently, he knows very well that he shouldn’t rush anything, that he shouldn’t speed anything up. His future is already important at Juventus,\u201d the manager explained.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s not important because someone offers \u20ac100 million [$116.8 million, \u00a385.6 million] or because there is a club that has the financial power to spend at this moment. He is already at the club that offers \u20ac100 million for him. So, we are all very calm.\u201d<\/p>\n
For Arsenal, the task is straightforward but difficult: find an upgrade on Martinelli before time runs out, and do so only if the Brazilian leaves.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
