Leader of Liga with eight points ahead of FC Barcelona and in a favorable tie in the Champions League against RB Leipzig (1-0), Real Madrid is in good momentum and nothing seems to stop Casa Blanca. However, the club from the Spanish capital is experiencing a real black spot with the very complicated integration of Arda Güler into its workforce. Arriving for 20 million euros this summer, the 19-year-old attacking midfielder has played very little and that is not getting better.
Long injured, which kept him away from the field until last January, he is now fit with the Merengues. Aligned five times since January 6 when he was available for twelve matches, he only played 92 minutes with the Spanish team. A very low figure which worries the Turkish selection with a view to Euro 2024 and which attracts other teams wanting to revive it such as Bayer Leverkusen, Tottenham and AC Milan. This Sunday against Seville, his case did not improve.
Carlo Ancelotti no longer wants to justify himself
While he was ready on the edge of the field to enter around the 78th minute of play when the score was 0-0, Carlo Ancelotti finally asked the player to sit down again after Luka Modric’s goal (81st) and preferred to bet on Dani Ceballos. Not playing a single minute, Arda Güler had to watch from afar the victory of his teammates against the Andalusians. A decision which strangely surprised the Spanish press. Quite energetic, Carlo Ancelotti took the questions about this decision head on.
“I had one thought before Modric’s goal and after the goal I had another thought. I think he understands it and if he doesn’t understand it, nothing will happen, but I don’t have to give any explanations. said the Italian coach. Comments which are a continuation of what he had declared before the match: “Arda Güler not playing is a question of competition with others. I pick the 11 who are playing and some are struggling to get in because they have lost a lot of time due to injuries. He is very young and must be patient.
