Kenan Yildiz has made history for Juventus once again, becoming the club’s youngest goalscorer in the Champions League. The 19-year-old beat Alessandro del Piero’s record with a strike worthy of breaking the record.
Cutting in from the left wing, the youngster took the effort on his right foot, hitting the post and ricocheting in, with the goalkeeper standing absolutely no chance.

The forward has scored on his debut start for Juventus in Serie A and Coppa Italia as well. And now, he has announced himself to the world on Juventus’ return to the top stage of European football.
New manager Thiago Motta has completely transformed how Juventus play, with their reliance on skills from wingers such as Yildiz and Nicolas Gonzalez evident. Both of them found the back of the net, with Yildiz having an incredible game.
It now remains to be seen how far the Turkey international can take his game, as he has the potential to become one of the top players in the continent.
Which shirt number does Yildiz wear?
Number 10
