The guy with Max Allegri?s favorite haircut is locked in for the long term. At this point, it?s pretty safe to say that Juventus youngster Kenan Yildiz is having a pretty good summer.
Just 12 months after arriving on a free from Bayern Munich, Yildiz was part of the traveling squad for Juve?s preseason tour in the United States. With his strong performances and overall state of Juventus? roster, Yildiz remained with the senior squad once the Bianconeri returned to Italy, ultimately earning a promotion to the first team alongside fellow teenager and good friend Dean Huijsen. He?s already made his Serie A debut, appearing in both of Juve?s first two games of the new season.
Now, on the second to last day of the month, he?s added another August achievement to boast about. This one might be the most important of them all, as Juventus announced Wednesday that the 18-year-old Yildiz has signed a contract extension through 2027 and locked in his long-term future in Turin. Yildiz, who played for the Juventus primavera and Next Gen squads last season, originally signed a contract through 2025 when he first joined from Bayern Munich?s youth setup last summer. But now, with a spot in the Juve senior squad fully cemented and a role being established for the 2023-24 season, Yildiz now has a shiny new contract secured to cap a month of August that is going to be pretty hard to match amongst his teammates.
