Arsenal Opening Transfer Talks Over Chelsea, PSG-Linked Attacker

Fichajes reports that Arsenal have opened formal talks with Juventus over a potential move for Yildiz. The player’s representative has already been in touch with Gunners officials, with early discussions focused on whether the winger would be open to a Premier League switch, per the report.

This isn’t the first time Yildiz has drawn interest from England. Chelsea made an attempt to sign him a few months ago, but Juventus rejected the approach. Now Arsenal are turning their attention to the Turkish talent as part of their long-term plans to strengthen the attack.

Juventus, however, are making it clear that Yildiz won’t come cheap. The club value him at €80 to €100 million, and some Italian outlets suggest the price could rise to €100 to €120 million if negotiations progress further down the line.

Moreover, Juventus are reportedly moving ahead with plans to extend Yildiz’s deal, aiming to guard against future interest. His current contract runs through 2029, and the club sees him as a key piece of their long-term project.
