Battle
The Turkish international is a versatile forward, as he feels comfortable both on the wings and in the centre-forward position. He is a technically sound player at 6 feet 2 inches tall and is efficient on both feet.
Liverpool has an attack full of world-class players but with Mohamed SalahWith his future hanging in the balance and new summer signing Federico Chiesa struggling with fitness issues, the Reds are apparently looking to add more depth in this department.
On the other hand, Manchester United's attack has performed poorly of late. Alejandro Garnacho has been fighting to show the best of himself in recent times, while Mark Rashford It has completely lost its shape. So apparently United are planning to add a new face to this position.
Arsenal's attacking department has been inconsistent so far this season, so it seems Mikel Arteta is willing to reinforce this position. Yildiz is a talented player and possesses great potential, so he would be a smart acquisition for Liverpool, Man Utd or Arsenal if any of those clubs manage to secure his service.
