Kenan Yildiz has kept building his case as one of Juventus’ most important players, and the club has no intention of letting him leave. At the same time, the young forward has made clear how much Luciano Spalletti’s presence has helped him settle and keep improving.
Yildiz, speaking as reported by Calciomercato, said Spalletti gives 100% in every training session, goes into the locker room, stays close to the pitch and jokes with the players. “He’s simply fantastic,” Yildiz said, adding that Spalletti is not only a coach but also “a great person” who makes the squad feel comfortable.
That view matters because Juventus have been relying on Yildiz to make an impact in matches, and the club sees him as a cornerstone of its future. He is also described in the source as one of the most promising attackers in European football, which helps explain why Juventus are committed to supporting his continued development rather than considering any sale.
The balance inside the club is the interesting part. Juventus want to keep Yildiz at the center of their plans, while Spalletti’s approach appears to be strengthening the player’s connection to the group. Yildiz said that feeling gives the team the strength to go out and give something positive back to the coach, a sign that the relationship is already shaping more than just training sessions.
For Juventus, that is the ideal outcome: a prized young player growing under a manager he clearly trusts, while the club prepares to keep building around him. With Yildiz continuing to develop impressively, the message from Turin is simple — he is not for sale, and the project is meant to keep moving with him in it.
