Arda Guler’s first 16 months at Real Madrid haven’t been easy, to say the least.
He has yet to make a regular start for Carlo Ancelotti’s side, and despite a busy schedule so far this season with Los Blancos, he has only started three times.
In Türkiye, frustrations are exacerbated by the situation of the star player in the national team. According to Fanatik’s Davran Cagri (via Marca), Guler has suffered from the quality around him at Real Madrid.
“There is almost no team that has the quality of a squad like Real Madrid, neither at national team level nor at club level. A player who doesn’t play much at Real Madrid can easily become a key player for the national team or another team. The example of Odegaard comes to mind. He didn’t get the opportunity he wanted at Real, but in his current career he is one of the most important players and captain of Arsenal.
Guler is worth gold
“For us, Arda Guler is worth gold. In Turkish football, and perhaps in the world, players like Arda are not found all the time. He is a footballer much more mature than his age. Of course we want him to play more in Spain with Real Madrid. I really needed more playing time, especially in the last few matches. »
There is undoubtedly a fear that Guler’s development will stagnate if he continues to occupy a junior position at Real Madrid. With this in mind, Cagri believes that a loan in January would be wise.
“He should make a decision for the future in the short term. Maybe he needs to go on loan to a big club and play more. Arda is a very important player for Turkey, he brings great power to the national team. Of course, a player like that can’t stay on the sidelines like at Real Madrid. Here, people trust him and he performs great for his country. »
