Manchester United legend Paul Scholes has been left in awe of Juventus’ young Turkish striker Kenan Yildiz following his standout performance against Manchester City.
Scholes, who might have been cheering for Juventus in this match against their fierce rivals, took to Instagram Stories to express his astonishment and admiration for the 2005-born forward.
“Who the f**k is this Yildiz?” was Scholes’s emphatic message on Instagram, accompanied by an applause emoji, signaling his clear appreciation for a talent he might not have fully recognized before.
Indeed, Yildiz delivered an impressive display on the pitch, coming close to scoring against Pep Guardiola’s formidable side but ultimately missing the goal.
This public endorsement from Scholes, known for his insightful analysis and appreciation for emerging talents, underscores Yildiz’s growing reputation in European football.
The young attacker has been making waves with his dynamic play, technical skill, and potential to influence games at the highest level.
Yildiz’s performance against Manchester City was a testament to his ability to compete with and challenge the best in the game, even if he didn’t get his name on the scoresheet but did assist Vlahovic goal.
His display has not only caught the eye of fans and pundits but also legends like Scholes, who are known for recognizing the next big thing in football.
