Sounds like a good idea to me. A couple of weeks into the summer, Juventus announced that talented Dutch teenager Dean Huijsen had signed a contract extension through 2027. Now, as we head into the final couple of weeks of the summer, the other half of the talented duo that has been promoted from the Next Gen squad into the first team this season is about to follow suit.
According to multiple reports out of Italy on Tuesday, Turkish starlet Kenan Yildiz has followed in his good friend Huijsen?s rather large footsteps, agreeing to terms on a long-term contract extension through 2027. It will lock Yildiz into a deal that many hoped would sign just a few short months after he arrived on a free transfer from Bayern Munich last summer when rumors surfaced about clubs in Germany and Turkey already being interested in signing him away from Juventus? primavera squad. But, thanks to his quick rise through the top two levels of the Juve youth setup before earning a promotion along with Huijsen this summer, Yildiz is now very much a part of this Juventus team ? both for the short and long term.

Excl: Juventus agree terms with Kenan Yildiz to extend his contract until June 2027 ?????

New deal set to be activated as he had two more year options left on current contract.

Excellent news for Juventus as Kenan?s highly rated talent and club trusts him for the future. pic.twitter.com/A1iqS2FyTQ? ...
