The 20-year-old, valued at around £65m [Transfermarkt], has impressed with nine goals and eight assists last season, and a strong start to 2025/26 with two goals and four assists in seven games.
Juventus are unbeaten this season and are keen to secure Yildiz’s long-term future with a new contract.
However, Arsenal are expected to “return to the fray” next summer to sign the winger, while Chelsea also plan to revive their interest in 2026 after seeing a £65m offer rejected in the last window.

Following Juventus’ win over Parma, Tudor praised Yildiz’s mentality and professionalism, saying the former Bayern Munich academy player can become a “truly top player.”
Improving the left side of attack remains a priority for Arsenal, while Chelsea view Yildiz as a long-term investment setting up a major transfer battle next summer.
