The old lady knows what their Turkish star Kenan Yldis is worth and they are not going to give at the doors.
Real Madrid have once again contacted Juventus and received exactly the same response as last time. – The 21-year-old striker is basically not for sale and if talks are to be carried out, they start at a price of at least 100 million euros. They know that Arsenal and Bayern Munich are also following the situation and should be ready to strike if it becomes relevant.

The interest is not new. The White club already enquired about Yildiz in 2025, when Xabi Alonso was in charge, and now his name is reappearing among the options the club is considering with José Mourinho at the helm.
Kenan Yildiz back on Real Madrid’s agenda
According to Corriere dello Sport this Sunday, Real Madrid are once again insisting on signing Kenan Yildiz, seeing him as an opportunity to strengthen their attack at the end of this season. The operation is therefore scheduled for June 2027, and not for the upcoming January market.
The player’s current contract situation involves a high investment. Yildiz renewed his contract with Juventus Turin on February 7 and signed until June 30, 2030, giving the Italian club a strong negotiating position.
Juventus currently value him at around €100 million and may even demand a higher amount. There is no offer from Madrid yet or open negotiations between the clubs – only monitoring ahead of the coming summer.
A potential move to Spain would also mean bringing in a player who primarily plays on the left attacking side. This position is currently held by Vinícius, so any progress will also depend on Madrid’s planning for next season.
Juventus value Yildiz at 100 million
Juventus Torino have built parts of their plan around Yildiz. Before the start of this season, they renewed the striker’s contract until 2030, after he made 45 appearances, 11 goals and 10 assists last season in Serie A, the Champions League and the Italian Cup.
The Italian club also awarded him the number 10 jersey and made the Turk the youngest captain in the club’s history in September 2025. These moves justify the buyout clause of three-digit million amounts.
Juventus’ sporting situation could be decisive. Information from Italy suggests that if they do not reach the top four again in Serie A, it could force the club to reconsider some financial decisions in the summer of 2027.
Yildiz is currently injured and is expected back in December. His performances after his return and Juventus’ final placement will influence the club’s stance on potential bids.
Arsenal and Bayern compete for Kenan Yildiz
Real Madrid is not the only interested party. Arsenal have previously followed the player and continue to seek alternatives on the left, while Bayern Munich, where Yildiz spent a decade in the youth categories, are also following his development.
The competition strengthens Juventus’ negotiating position if they decide to consider bids. To play in Spain, Madrid must surpass an initial valuation of €100 million and outperform two clubs capable of striking a deal at that level.
The next checkpoint will be at the end of the season. If Juventus adjust their stance based on their table position and open the door to negotiations, Kenan Yildiz could be one of the names in the 2027 summer market. Until then, Madrid will continue their monitoring without making a bid.
