JAKARTA - Arsenal apparently sent an electronic letter (email) to Juventus regarding the offer for young striker Kenan Yildiz.

Yildiz's brilliant performance in Serie A immediately caught the attention of Premier League clubs. Not only Arsenal, but also Liverpool who are interested in this talented 18-year-old forward.

Arsenal also did not just talk about showing his interest in Yildiz. The North London club has also sent an email to Juve's head office.

"For Kenan Yildiz, we offer a price of 40 million euros," said an email sent to Juve.

As expected, Juve rejected the Gunners' request, which is ready to disburse funds of around 675 billion rupiah.

Juve immediately replied to Arsenal's email as such, "Thank you, but 40 million is not enough."

Even though it was bought at a high price, the elite Italian club was not interested in releasing Yildiz. Moreover, the German-born player but chose to defend the Turkish national team is projected to be Juve's future star.

Yildiz has actually entered the Juve senior team. It's just that, players who usually play on the wing or striker are also played on the NextGen team, namely the Juve junior team competing in Serie C.

He then made his Serie A debut just two days before Christmas or on December 23, 2023.

Yildiz immediately became a concern after scoring a goal in his debut against Frosinone. Interestingly, he only played 12 minutes before breaking into the opponent's goal.

Since that impressive appearance, Yildiz has been included in the La Vecchia hala squad. Moreover, two front players for the team, Federico Chiesa and Moise Kean, were absent several times due to injury. In the aftermath, coach Massimiliano Allegri also relied on Yildiz.

He has also played 17 times, including 15 times in Serie A and twice in the Coppa Italia. As a result, Yildiz scored one goal and made two assists.

When celebrating goals, he always sticks out his tongue following his idol who is also a Juve legend, Alessandro del Piero.

Even though he has only collected one goal, Allegri does not burden Yildiz to score. The reason is, he is still in the process of developing.

Calciomercato called Yildiz 'one of the biggest appearances of the championship club'. Calciomercato further wrote, "London (Arsenal) also captured his talent."

However, Juve will not release his best potential asset.
