Juventus stepping up talks to extend Kenan Yildiz suggests he’s set to remain a key attacker; bettors may prefer Juventus in goal markets and consider backing Yildiz for anytime scorer/assist markets. Contract clarity could lower odds on a summer transfer and shift value toward player performance bets this season.
Juventus ready new offer as Yildiz’s camp arrives in Turin
Juventus are preparing a fresh push to extend Kenan Yildiz’s contract after members of the player’s family arrived in Turin to open negotiations. The 20-year-old has emerged as a central figure in the side, prompting accelerated talks to align his pay with his on-field importance.
Family meeting and intermediary involved
Yildiz’s father is expected to hold face-to-face discussions with club directors, supported by a high-profile intermediary. The presence of the player’s representatives in Turin signals serious intent from both sides to reach an agreement in the coming days.
Wage demands and club response
Yildiz’s current deal runs until June 2029, but his salary — reportedly around €1.5m — is far below what the forward now commands. The player’s camp is asking for roughly €6m per season, with Juventus understood to be willing to bridge the gap, likely by structuring a package with performance-related bonuses.
Form validates higher valuation
The attacking midfielder/forward has delivered six goals and six assists in 20 appearances across all competitions this season, statistics that underline his growing influence. That output has strengthened his bargaining position and made a pay rise a priority for the club to retain talent.
Sporting and betting implications
Securing Yildiz would maintain Juventus’s offensive continuity and could make the team more reliable in goal-related markets. For punters, that means shorter odds on Juventus scoring and increased appeal for backing Yildiz in anytime scorer or assist markets, while transfer-drama value may diminish if a new deal is confirmed.
