Kenan Yildiz has committed his future to Juventus by putting pen to paper on a new deal that will keep him at the club until June 2030, Juventus have announced.
The Turkey international appeared alongside head coach Luciano Spalletti at the pre-match press conference ahead of Sunday’s Serie A meeting with Lazio, where the contract extension was officially revealed.
Yildiz arrived in Turin from Bayern Munich as a teenager and progressed through the Bianconeri’s youth setup before establishing himself in the senior squad.
Speaking to reporters, the 20-year-old said:
“First of all, I want to thank John Elkann and Damien Comolli, everyone at Juventus, the coach, my team-mates and the fans.
“I’m happy to renew my contract and stay with you in this family.
“I’m confident we’ll make great things in the future. I love Juventus. Since I came here, I’ve always been sure we’d make great things, having the fans and my family backing me.”
The attacker made his senior debut in August 2023 and scored on his first start in a 2-1 victory over Frosinone in December that year. Since then, he has featured 115 times for the first team, registering 25 goals and 19 assists.
Yildiz also played a role in Juventus’ Coppa Italia triumph during the 2023–24 season. This term, Juve sit fourth in the Serie A standings, trailing league leaders Inter by 10 points.
