And it was a remarkable way to open his account as he broke the deadlock in the 12th minute with an incredible run and strike.

Yildiz picked up the ball on the left-hand side of the penalty area, worked the ball through THREE defenders, and finished with aplomb as he beat keeper Stefano Turati with a venomous strike at the near post.

The brilliant moment comes as Arsenal continue to be linked with a move for the teenager.

Mikel Arteta is keen to strengthen his squad in the January transfer window as they look to remain top of the Premier League table.

Yildiz's current contract expires in June 2027, so the Gunners will likely have to table a significant offer to convince Juventus to sell.

Manager Massimiliano Allegri gushed over the teenager's talent during a post-match press conference in October.

He said: "In my opinion, he becomes a wonderful player."

Yildiz, who left Bayern Munich last year, also earned his first senior call-up to the Turkish national team in October.

Then in November, he scored his first international goal in a 3-2 win over Germany.

Meanwhile, Arsenal have also been linked with Ivan Toney, Pedro Neto and Douglas Luiz.
