"Chelsea and Arsenal may reportedly have been handed a huge boost as Kenan Yildiz's talks over a new contract with Juventus seem to have stalled. There has supposedly not been any progress on a new deal for the Turkey international with the Turin club, and this will likely have big-name suitors on alert. That's according to a report from respected Italian outlet Gazzetta dello Sport, who name Chelsea, Arsenal and Real Madrid as clubs who could battle it out for his signature next summer."
"the asking price for Yildiz could be around 90m, so this is still not a deal that can be done on the cheap.

Yildiz is still young and learning the game, but undoubtedly looks like one of the top prospects in Europe right now."
"Chelsea's long-term project around young players should afford Yildiz an opportunity to play regularly and develop, while the Blues also increasingly look close to winning major trophies under Enzo Maresca. Arsenal would be another winning project, with Mikel Arteta's side surely on the verge of glory and only likely to come even closer with the addition of a top attacking talent like Yildiz."
Kenan Yildiz's contract negotiations with Juventus have stalled, with no reported progress on a new deal. Italian outlet Gazzetta dello Sport links Chelsea, Arsenal and Real Madrid as potential suitors for the Turkey international next summer. Juventus could ask around €90m for Yildiz, a fee that would still be affordable for elite clubs. The 20-year-old has impressed at Juventus and is considered one of Europe's top prospects while still developing. Chelsea could offer regular playing time within a long-term youth-focused project. Arsenal could add a top attacking talent to an already strong, trophy-chasing squad. Real Madrid also remain a plausible destination given their interest in world-class youngsters.
