Florentino Pérez stuns Europe again as Real Madrid prepare to unleash a new golden generation led by Güler, Yıldız, and Mbappé.
In a sensational revelation, Arda Güler has confirmed that his Turkish national teammate Kenan Yıldız will join him at Real Madrid next season, following the termination of Yıldız’s contract at Juventus through a record-breaking €100 million agreement.
A Monumental Turkish Duo Reunited at the Bernabéu
The announcement came shortly after Real Madrid President Florentino Pérez executed another Galáctico-style masterstroke, swooping in to bring Kenan Yıldız—one of Serie A’s brightest young stars—to Madrid. Güler, speaking to the press, expressed excitement and admiration for Yıldız’s talent, describing the move as not only a footballing boost but a symbolic and cultural milestone for Turkish football.
Kenan Yıldız: The Versatile Prodigy
Still just 20 years old, Yıldız has dazzled with Juventus, thriving in multiple roles: winger, second striker, or attacking midfielder. His vision, creativity, and killer instinct have drawn comparisons to elite playmakers, and he was being monitored by Chelsea, Arsenal, and Inter Milan—but it was Madrid’s ambition that won him over.
The €100 million deal—one of the biggest ever for a Turkish player—includes substantial add-ons, underlining how highly Madrid value his potential. Yıldız joins a forward line already boasting Mbappé, Bellingham, Güler, Vinícius Jr., and soon, Endrick.
Florentino Pérez’s Legacy-Building Continues
Pérez, never one to shy away from bold investments, sees Yıldız as part of a long-term strategy to dominate both La Liga and Europe for years to come. This is no mere transfer—it’s a statement: Real Madrid are building not just for today, but for the next decade.
Cultural Symbolism and National Pride
This transfer isn’t just historic in terms of euros and footballing ability—it’s a proud moment for Turkish fans worldwide. For the first time, two of Turkey’s brightest modern talents will line up side-by-side at the world’s most prestigious club, creating a dream scenario for fans back home and sparking mass celebration on social media.
Juventus Left Reeling but Cash-Rich
While Juventus fought hard to keep Yıldız, the lure of playing alongside Güler in the Bernabéu proved irresistible. The €100 million windfall gives the Bianconeri major financial breathing room, though replacing Yıldız’s unique profile won’t be easy.
A New Era Dawns in Madrid
As Real Madrid prepares for the 2025/26 campaign, all eyes are on how Ancelotti will integrate Yıldız into a side brimming with flair and firepower. The pressure will be enormous—but the promise is greater.
Two young stars. One shared dream. And the
world’s biggest stage awaits.
