Chelsea scouts were on hand when Kenan Yildiz scored a stunning goal for Juventus and also provided an assist in the win over Inter. Juventus managed to win 4-3 in a thrilling match, and Yildiz was one of the standout players of the day. He scored with a powerful long-range shot that beat goalkeeper Yann Sommer, and played brilliantly in a free role behind main striker Dusan Vlahovic.
Sources suggest that Chelsea are pursuing Kenan Yildiz as one of their top transfer targets for 2026. Although he is not necessarily Chelsea's number one priority, he is being monitored alongside other players such as Aston Villa's Morgan Rogers.
Kenan Yildiz, 20, is expected to be a tough target for Juventus to keep, and Chelsea could be the right project to continue his development. After failing to sign Xavi Simons this summer, Chelsea are considering alternatives such as Yildiz and Rogers.
However, it is clear that Kenan Yildiz will not be free, Juventus have announced that they will start negotiations from 80 million euros, and that amount may have increased since then. However, Chelsea's leaders have shown several times that they do not mind spending big amounts, if they are convinced of a player's potential.
