At just 20 years old, Kenan Yıldız has earned a reputation as one of the most exciting talents on the European market.
The Turkish winger is a Bayern Munich academy product who joined Juventus in 2022.
He already has 24 caps for his national team, which shows his ability is recognised.
Playing at the Old Lady, now under head coach Igor Tudor, he has shown moments that can define his role to be key at the club.
Yıldız can play as a left-winger in a 4-3-3 or as an attacking midfielder behind the striker in a 4-2-3-1 system.
His dominant traits are his flair, composure, and glimpses of physical presence in duels.
The Turkish international can operate between lines, create overloads and combinations, and cut inside on his stronger right foot to execute numerous actions, from a simple pass to a shot in the far corner.
Through this Kenan Yıldız scout report, we will examine the tactical side of Kenan Yıldız’s game, his positional tendencies, and tactical behaviour, determining his strengths and areas of improvement that can help him shine bright for his Juventus and Turkish national team sides.
With four wins and two draws, Belgium got much closer to the World Cup 2026 participation after they succeeded in beating Wales in Cardiff following a complicated away game that ended with a 2-4 final result for the Belgians.
Belgium are actually at the top spot of their group J with 14 points, one point ahead of the second of the group, North Macedonia, who have 13 points from seven games.
With Belgium to play against Kazakhstan in another difficult away match on October 15, 2025, they have the chance to widen the gap between them, Wales, and North Macedonia, knowing that such a win would further confirm their lead in the group and their participation in the 2026 World Cup without having to play extra play-off rounds.
In fact, the current generation of Belgium (which is a mix of some of the older players of the “golden generation” and the current emerging players and stars) proved that they can be good enough to continue not just participating in the World Cups but more importantly reaching an advanced stage in them, like they did in the 2018 World Cup edition, when they were very close to the final and got knocked out by France in the semi-finals.
This current team hopes to reach the advanced stages of the tournament once again, and why not reach the final and do what Belgium’s “golden generation” failed to achieve despite having had a stellar squad for numerous years?
However, to achieve such a target, it will be crucial for Belgium to work extensively on fixing their weaknesses, especially defensive-wise, to resist against the bigger teams they will encounter during the tournament.
Otherwise, it will be very complicated to compete for a ticket to the advanced rounds even if they succeed to put on powerful attacking performances.
During the match against Wales, the Red Devils showed some very positive attacking signs, suggesting that the team is building some new trends relying on players like Kevin De Bruyne, Charles De Ketelaere, Jérémy Doku, and Leandro Trossard.
Belgium has got plenty of reliable names in attack and can even make their attacking performances much more dangerous on any opponent if they succeed in finding the best suitable roles for each player ahead of the big tournament.
At the same time, it will be fundamental for Rudi Garcia to pick the adequate players for the upcoming games and avoid keeping valuable players who can benefit the team a lot out of the squad ahead of the World Cup.
Names like Romelu Lukaku and Alexis Saelemaekers should be considered upon their return from injuries.
They can represent a huge asset to the team’s front line, and Garcia will have to be very attentive to his player choices and players’ management to avoid committing costly mistakes.
In this tactical analysis of the match between Belgium and Wales, our primary focus will be on assessing Belgium’s attacking performance and ideas and how they can build on this performance to improve their overall attacking tactics.
