Liverpool Sets Sights on Next Season to Maintain Dominance
Liverpool is already planning for the next season as they aim to continue their dominance in both domestic and European competitions. The Reds currently lead the Premier League table by 15 points, have secured a spot in the Carabao Cup final, and hold an advantage over Paris Saint-Germain after the first leg of their Champions League Round of 16 clash.
Liverpool Targets Kenan Yildiz as Potential Salah Successor
With Mohamed Salah’s contract nearing its expiration and no agreement yet on an extension, Liverpool is exploring potential successors. Juventus winger Kenan Yildiz has emerged as a key target. According to reports from TuttoJuve, the Merseyside club is preparing a £67 million bid for the talented Turkish youngster, identifying him as a long-term replacement for Salah.
Yildiz, who recently extended his contract with Juventus until 2029, has been making waves in Serie A. The 19-year-old, a product of Bayern Munich’s academy, joined Juventus in 2022 and quickly rose through the ranks to earn a place in the first team.
Yildiz: A Rising Star in Serie A
Yildiz made his Serie A debut in August 2023 and soon made history by becoming Juventus’ youngest-ever foreign goalscorer in the league. His rapid rise continued on the European stage when he scored his first Champions League goal, surpassing club legend Alessandro Del Piero as the youngest player to score for Juventus in the competition.
This season, Yildiz has contributed six goals and four assists in 40 appearances across all competitions. Overall, he has recorded 33 goals and 21 assists at all club levels, showcasing his technical skills, pace, and creativity. These attributes make him an exciting prospect for Liverpool’s attacking system under manager Arne Slot.
Liverpool is closely monitoring Yildiz’s situation but faces competition from other Premier League clubs, including Manchester City, who are reportedly ready to make a move for the young star.
As Liverpool prepares for the future, Yildiz could become a pivotal figure in their quest to maintain their status as one of Europe’s elite clubs.
