Juventus are set to welcome a new addition to their first team for the upcoming season.
Kenan Yildiz, a young Turkish striker born in 2005, has impressed the club’s management with his performances in the spring season, according to La Repubblica.
After being promoted to Next Gen at the end of the season and performing well, Yildiz has been earmarked as one of the next players to be integrated into the group of Massimiliano Allegri.
According to reports from Giovanni Albanese, Yildiz will join the first team for pre-season training until the tour in the United States, before moving on to NextGen, where he is expected to be one of the standout performers of the upcoming season.

The move is also in line with the club’s recent focus on youth development, with the likes of Samuel Iling-Junior, Nicolo Fagioli, Fabio Miretti, Enzo Barrrenechea and Tommaso Barbieri all being played with the first team last season.
