Juventus have begun their new life under Igor Tudor in style after taking a 1-0 lead against visiting Genoa courtesy of Turkish starlet Kenan Yıldız.
The 19-year-old winger produced an exceptional moment of quality when he danced through Patrick Vieira's defence before dispatching a thunderous effort past Nicola Leali at the near post.
Enjoying a new lease on life under Tudor after Thiago Motta's departure, Yıldız equaled former Juve forward Moise Kean's record marker in the process, hitting his seventh Serie A goal before reaching the age of 20.

If early signs are anything to go by, the Juventus Next Gen product could be primed for a personal renaissance to close out the 2024/25 Serie A campaign.
