Arda Guler’s latest performance at EURO 2024 captures the essence of the Turkish player.
Arda Guler, like Jude Bellingham, is one of Real Madrid’s most essential signings from last season. During his tenure at former club Fenerbahce, the 19-year-old Turkish prodigy player drew the attention of many big names. Los Blancos defeated rival Barcelona to sign this exceptional player.
The teenage footballer, who is regarded as a long-term replacement for Luka Modric, has continued to pique the interest of many top European clubs in recent weeks, including Juventus. Many fans believe Guler receives insufficient playing time in the Real Madrid squad when compared to other established superstars. He only made 12 appearances and scored six goals.
Now that Real has both Mbappe and Endrick, it will be even more difficult for Guler to break into the first team. Juventus has expressed interest in signing this young attacking midfielder on loan this summer. In addition to the Bianconeri, Sevilla, Real Betis, and Getafe are interested in signing the 19-year-old special talent.
Juventus’ interest in young player Arda Guler is understandable. After all, Weston McKennie and Samuel Iling-Junior are expected to leave the Bianconeri, as both have been linked with Aston Villa. Furthermore, the Serie A club is undecided about the long-term future of Adrien Rabiot, whose contract with the Allianz Stadium team is about to expire.
As previously stated, Arda Guler did not make it into Real Madrid’s first team last season, in part because the teenager was injured in the first half of the season, and Carlo Ancelotti was cautious in his decision. Morning stars born in 2005 have very few opportunities. Guler will also have to compete with veteran midfielders such as Luka Modric and Toni Kroos.
However, when given more playing time in the latter stages of the season, Guler impressed, scoring a number of crucial goals as Real Madrid won both the La Liga and the UEFA Champions League double.
The Turkish international’s rise to prominence at EURO 2024 has piqued the interest of many top clubs, as previously stated. Real Madrid will not consider letting Guler leave the Santiago Bernabeu this summer, regardless of the competition in the team’s midfield.
When Juventus asked to borrow Guler, they also expressed interest in Aston Villa’s Douglas Luis, knowing that the Turkish midfielder is not for sale by the Spanish giant.
