Turkish national footballer Kenan Yildiz, currently playing for Juventus, continues to impress with his outstanding performances. In Juventus’ 1-0 victory over Genoa, Yildiz scored the only goal of the match, setting a new record in the process.
Continuing his career in Italy, Yildiz was previously recognized as one of “Europe’s top young footballers.” His remarkable performances, both for his club and the national team, have helped him reach the peak of his career.
In the most recent match against Genoa, Yildiz not only scored the winning goal but also broke a notable record. With this goal, he has now reached a total of seven goals in the league, making him the highest-scoring player under 20 for Juventus since 1990.
Surpassing his idol Del Piero
Yildiz has also surpassed his idol, Alessandro Del Piero, in this achievement. Yildiz, along with Moise Kean, shares the top spot with seven goals, while Del Piero is behind with six.
If Yildiz scores one more goal, he will move to the top of this record.
