Manchester United are understood to be preparing to make Juventus star and Chelsea transfer target Kenan Yildiz their priority for summer 2026.

As first reported here for the Daily Briefing, the Red Devils are huge fans of Yildiz and could pay as much as €90m to land the Turkey international.

Chelsea are also keen on Yildiz, but the feeling among sources is that Man Utd could be ready to go higher with their offer for the 20-year-old.

“Manchester United are making Yildiz their big priority for summer 2026,” my source told me. “The current feeling is that they’re ready to go higher than Chelsea and Arsenal, maybe as high as €90m.”

Yildiz is a key player for Juventus and they surely won’t let him go without a fight, with my sources also telling me that they want to tie him down to a new contract.

Yildiz himself is also not showing any sign of being desperate to leave Juve, so it remains to be seen how much the likes of United and Chelsea would be able to convince him to move to England.
