Premier League club Arsenal is reportedly preparing a significant offer for Juventus's young Turkish star Kenan Yıldız, aiming to bolster their attacking options this summer. Manager Mikel Arteta has identified the 21-year-old forward as a 'dream transfer,' signaling a strong desire to bring him to the Emirates Stadium.

According to reports, Arsenal is willing to commit a substantial budget of €100 million for the transfer. Yıldız, who has impressed with his performances for Juventus, has become a key target for the North London club as they seek to strengthen their left-wing and forward positions.

In his previous season with Juventus, Yıldız made 47 appearances, contributing to 21 goals with 11 goals scored and 10 assists. His current market value is estimated at €75 million, though Arsenal's reported willingness to offer €100 million suggests they see immense potential and value in the player.

While Yıldız is the primary target, Arsenal is also considering Christos Tzolis, a 24-year-old winger from Club Brugge, as an alternative should negotiations for the Turkish international prove unsuccessful. Yıldız is currently under contract with Juventus until 2030.
