The player Arsenal have offered Juventus this summer in exchange for Kenan Yildiz
Kenan Yildiz is a player who keeps cropping up when it comes to transfer talk around Arsenal.
Despite adding some good players already this summer, talk of bringing in another attacking player has continued. Indeed, Mikel Arteta confirmed after the win over Coventry that the club remain confident of improving the squad.
For now, the aforementioned Yildiz is a target that remains with Juventus.
However, according to Arsenal expert HandOfArsenal, the Gunners have already presented the Italian club with a player-plus-cash offer.
Arsenal have offered Gabriel Martinelli and cash for Kenan Yildiz
Martinelli’s future is up in the air as it is and there is an expectation that he moves on from the club before the end of the window.
However, until now, things have centered around getting as much money as possible for the winger.
But according to HandOfArsenal, Martinelli has been offered to Juventus.

Confirming that Arsenal had actually offered Martinelli and cash for Yildiz this summer, the popular transfer insider then suggested all is not done with the Juventus man.
“Kenan Yildiz was a serious target for Arsenal this summer. To my understanding, they really tried for him. Juventus did NOT want to sell this year.
“He remains on Arsenal’s list for the future.”
There are suggestions that Juventus value Yildiz at over £100m, which means any potential deal is going to be a big outlay for the Gunners.
As for Martinelli, there are fresh offers on the table from the Middle East and it could well land Arsenal a record transfer fee.
Nevertheless, this here shows how seemingly determined Arsenal are to move Martinelli on in what is, in reality, a ruthless piece of management.
