Arsenal have made contact with the representative of Juventus attacker Kenan Yildiz regarding a potential move at the end of the season, according to La Repubblica.

The Gunners bolstered their frontline with the signings of Viktor Gyokeres, Noni Madueke and Eberechi Eze last summer, but they are still eyeing a marquee left winger.

Yildiz has been closely tracked by the club's scouting team and the Gunners have now established contact with his super-agent Jorge Mendes over a future transfer deal.

The Turkish ace was expected to sign a new contract earlier this year, but talks have stalled with differences regarding the salary package.

Arsenal are capable of offering much more than the €5m annual package presented by Juventus. It remains to be seen whether they can sign him.

Yildiz still has four years left on his contract and the Bianconeri are expected to demand at least €80m to part ways with him next summer.

The 20-year-old has five goals and five assists for Juventus this term.
