CaughtOffside reports that Manchester United are preparing to make Juventus star and Chelsea transfer target Yildiz their top priority for the summer 2026 window.
The outlet adds that while Chelsea remain interested in the 20-year-old, there’s a belief United could be ready to table a higher offer to land Yildiz ahead of their Premier League rivals.
“Manchester United are making Yildiz their big priority for summer 2026,” a source told CaughtOffside. “The current feeling is that they’re ready to go higher than Chelsea and Arsenal, maybe as high as €90m.”
Yildiz remains a key player for Juventus, and the club has no intention of letting him go easily. The outlet claims that Juventus are keen to tie him down to a new contract.
The player himself isn’t showing any urgency to leave, which could make it tough for clubs like Manchester United and Chelsea to convince him to move to England.
While the Premier League’s appeal is strong, Juventus’ stature, rich history, and ambition make them a hard club to walk away from.
