Club World Cup creates opportunities for breakout stars, and the next one may just be at Juventus

Philadelphia – Summer tournaments can create opportunities for players to break out in great ways, and at Juventus it can happen before our eyes. Attacker Kenan Yildiz danced around the Wydad team on Sunday, dribbled and shoots on the way to a brace and forced his own goal while Juventus helped 4-1. Just 20 helps Turkish international Juventus to lead after he was broken into in the first team, showing signs of star in the coming days.

“I would not like to play against him if I was the opposition. It seems that he is enjoying his football at the moment, and I am sure he will progress,” said Juventus defender Lloyd Kelly about Yildiz’s performance.

That pleasure while playing goes a long way, especially for someone who is as young as Yildiz. Now with three goals in the tournament in just two games, Yildiz will have a chance to win the Club World Cup Golden Boot, but his goals will not stop there. He was already productive for Juventus last season, scored 12 goals and assisted seven more in all competitions, but more could come this season. With Juventus who also participates in the Champions League next season under the new coach Igor Tudor, Yildiz will be an important attacker in his attitude, which can be aesthetic if things go correctly. And even if that is not the case, he has enough individual sparkle to make something happen out of the blue.

Yildiz’s second goal for Juventus is a good example of this. Juventus had a good teamwork to get Wydad out of their positions, but the last ball hit the field and took a strange bouncing. That would not be a problem with Yildiz who takes it and fires an absolute rocket past El Mehdi Benabid for the goal.

Both his shots ended up in the back of the net and his positioning helped to create space for other members of the team. In addition to Randal Kolo Muani, the potential is for the Juventus attack to belong to one of the best in Series A. who has won a scudetto since the 2019-2020 season, Juventus will return to their former glory to their former glory, especially with Dusan Vlahovic’s Future.

“I don’t really have to say too much about him. His versions speak for themselves,” said Kelly. “You can see the quality he has when he goes on the ball. To be honest before the game started, I told him:” Go do your thing, go on the ball, create opportunities “and that’s exactly what he did.”

Tests will come if Yildiz touches a rough patch, but that is where having a support system of experienced players can help ensure that he blooms. Those little conversations, such as what Kelly had with him, can play an enormous role in helping a player for a big game, but Yildiz is also at home with the ball at his feet. Yildiz already gets 21 caps for the senior side of Turkiye and gains a lot of experience on which he can draw an important season and possibly the World Cup 2026.

Continue on this path, he could etch his name in the history of Juventus, but of course it is a long way. For now, the focus is on completing the Club World Cup on the strongest possible note. Juventus will have a strong test to determine who Groep G wins while they are facing Manchester City on Thursday. If Yildiz can keep up with this level of performance while he pushes Juventus to another victory, his exploits are extremely difficult to ignore.
