Chelsea are set to make a massive offer to Kenan Yildiz worth €10 million a year in an attempt to lure him from Juventus.
That is according to Tuttosport, who report that Chelsea are looking to take advantage of Yildiz's stalled contract talks with Juve.

The report states that Chelsea will make a new offer for Yildiz in the new year having already been interested in signing the attacker this past summer.
Juventus are working hard to sign Yildiz up to a new contract to prevent the wonderkid from joining Chelsea.
Chelsea move for Yildiz
Tuttosport claims that talks have stalled, with there being a gap of €500,000 between Juve's offer and Yildiz's demands of €5m per season.
Yildiz currently earns only €1.5m per season and Chelsea now hope to blow Juventus out of the water by offering €10m per season.
Arsenal also hold interest in Yildiz and recently sent scouts to watch him.
Yildiz's current contract does not expire until 2029 but Juventus plan to extend his deal with a significant salary increase.
Yildiz is undoubtedly Juventus' star player and is enjoying an excellent start to the season, making four goal contributions in Serie A and scoring a stunning goal in the Champions League against Borussia Dortmund. He also scored three goals for Turkey in his last two games.
Could Yildiz leave Juventus?
The Bianconeri consider the 20-year-old as one of the cornerstones from which to build a successful Juventus squad from.
Yildiz himself wants to win major trophies in Turin and is very happy at the club.
So signing Yildiz will not be easy for Chelsea, even if a lot can happen in a year and money always is a factor.
Yildiz has emerged over the last year or so as one of the most exciting young talents in Europe.
The teenager has long been tipped to become a superstar. Juve beat Barcelona to his signature as a 16-year-old in the summer of 2022 when his contract at Bayern Munich expired.
At the time this was considered as a huge coup for a player seen as one of the best in the world at his age group.
Yildiz initially played with Juventus’ Under-19s and Next Gen team in Serie C, but broke into the first team setup midway through 2023-24.
Last season, Yildiz scored 12 goals and made nine assists in all competitions but he appears ready to move onto the next level this campaign.
Yildiz has already been compared to Juventus legend Alessandro Del Piero, who was his idol as a kid.
Like the 2006 World Cup winner, Yildiz loves to cut in from the left and boasts wonderful control, technique and the ability to beat a man and unleash a shot in on goal.
He even celebrates in the same way as Del Piero did, sticking out his tongue when he scores. The pair have developed something of a bromance together.
Yildiz has been capped 23 times by Tukey, scoring two goals and playing at Euro 2024.
