Real Madrid are always on the lookout for the brightest young talents around the world. In the summer, they signed one of them in the form of Arda Guler. He had earned comparisons with Lionel Messi during his time at Fenerbahce but has had a tough time since arriving at Santiago Bernabeu, suffering multiple injuries and is yet to even make his debut for the club.
Real Madrid are already being linked with another Turkish international though. Someone who has been making waves in Serie A lately.
Kenan Yildiz spent a decade in the youth ranks at Bayern Munich before joining Juventus last year. The 18-year-old has already made a few appearances for their senior team and even scored his first goal recently.
Yildiz has already made some appearances for the Turkish national team too. So, understandably, he is being considered one of the best youngsters in European football at the moment, and has caught the eye of clubs like Real Madrid.
Real Madrid and Liverpool both want to sign Juventus ace
As reported by Defensa Central (via The Hard Tackle), Real Madrid are interested in Yildiz. He is also a transfer target for Liverpool.
Of course, Juventus are not expected to be interested in letting their wonderkid leave anytime soon. He is believed to have a contract until the summer of 2027 with the Italian club.
At the same time, there does not appear to be much reason for Yildiz to leave Juventus at this point in time either. He is already in and around the first-team picture.
That being said, Real Madrid do have a fantastic recent record when it comes to developing youngsters. Just look at how things have turned out for the likes of Eduardo Camavinga, Fede Valverde, Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo. Jude Bellingham was already a star before joining the club but he has improved significantly since arriving without doubt.
