Juventus\u2019 push to renew the Kenan Yildiz contract could face an awkward subplot after Luciano Spalletti played down talk of a new deal for himself.<\/strong><\/p>\n As FootItalia<\/strong> has reported, Juve are hoping to match Yildiz\u2019s aspirations in order to get a new deal over the line.<\/p>\n The Turkiye international wants his salary to reflect his status, but he also wants assurances regarding Juventus\u2019 ambitions.<\/p>\n As a result, Juve are reportedly working on getting Spalletti to also commit his future to the club.<\/p>\n The Italian coach replaced Igor Tudor in October, but his contract only runs until the end of the 2025\/26 season.<\/p>\n Italian reports suggested Juventus could aim to keep Spalletti in place until 2028 in pursuit of stability and a clear playing identity.<\/p>\n However, on the subject of his own future, Spalletti made it clear he is not seeking immediate security through a longer contract.<\/p>\n \u201cIf I had needed something else to feel more secure with a longer contract, I would have addressed it from the start when I spoke with Comolli,\u201d he told reporters ahead of the Lecce game.<\/p>\n \u201cI didn\u2019t, and I\u2019m fine in every aspect. I only need to feel good about my work and about the people who collaborate with me on and off the pitch.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve found extremely professional people who respect the roles and the work that has to be done. We share the same objectives.<\/p>\n \u201cThe goal is to be in the Champions League, and we\u2019re working in that direction.<\/p>\n \u201cIn June, we\u2019ll make the best evaluations based on the work we\u2019ve done, for the good of Juventus and Juventus fans.<\/p>\n \u201cIf things are satisfactory for everyone, then we can talk about something different. Right now, I don\u2019t need anything else.\u201d<\/p>\n Sofascore U21 team of the year includes Kenan Yildiz. #Juventus<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/KqH6sEOmJ3<\/a><\/p>\nYildiz wants ambition assurances ahead of new contract as Juve lean on Spalletti<\/h2>\n
