Even with big names in its offensive sector, Real Madrid is already thinking about reinforcements for the attack. Xabi Alonso, coach of the Merengue team, chose Kenan Yildiz, Juventus’ 20-year-old jewel, as a potential target for the next transfer window.
— Xabi Alonso wants Yildiz at Real Madrid. He is willing to release any player to sign him, except Mbappé. Juventus is asking for 100 million euros — agent Giovanni Branchini told the Italian press.
Despite Real Madrid’s interest, Juventus must play hard to release the young Turk. This is because Yildiz is seen in Turin as one of the pillars of the Old Lady’s new generation.
Alonso is well aware of Kenan’s talent and potential. When the current Real Madrid coach played for Bayern Munich, the Turk was part of the German club’s youth teams.
— They have very good players, and Yildiz is one of them. He had fantastic development. I’ve known him since Bayern. Seeing his progress makes me very happy — he said, before the duel between Real Madrid and Juventus in the Champions League.

According to the website Capology, Yildiz has a salary of 2,960,000 euros for the 2025-26 season, in addition to a four-year contract that ends on June 30, 2029.
