The next season promises changes at Real Madrid. As the transfer market approaches, there is speculation about which players might leave and who will join the club. The high expectations, as always, revolve around Florentino Pérez's decisions, who faces a summer full of rumors and squad movements.
The Uncertain Future of Arda Güler
Arda Güler, a 19-year-old Turk, arrived at Madrid with high expectations but hasn't been a starter. In his second season at the club, the young striker is still struggling to find his place in a team full of stars.
Güler, signed to polish his talent at Madrid, isn't having the desired prominence. With only a few minutes in the most important matches of the season, his future in the Spanish capital has become uncertain. However, the player hasn't shown signs of wanting to leave the club.
In several interviews, Arda has been optimistic about his future at Madrid, assuring that he "will succeed" and that he is committed to the club's project. In fact, in his latest media appearance, he made it clear that he has invested in his future in Madrid by buying a house in the city.
Arsenal Shows Interest in Güler
Despite Real Madrid's firm stance, Arsenal is very interested in acquiring Güler. Mikel Arteta sees impressive talent in Güler and is convinced that he would fit perfectly into his scheme.
Arsenal, according to rumors, has offered 30 million euros to acquire the midfielder this summer.
The Londoners know Arda well, as his playing style has been compared to that of Martin Ødegaard, Arsenal's current captain. Both players are left-footed, with great vision and an impressive ability to handle the ball. Although both tend to move in similar positions, Arsenal believes they could play together without issue, complementing each other on the field.
However, Real Madrid has a very clear stance: "Not for sale." Although Arsenal's offer is attractive, Florentino Pérez isn't willing to part with Güler. The player's contract, which extends until June 2029, includes a very high release clause, making any transfer attempt a complicated task.
Madrid Trusts in Their Turkish Gem
The white club continues to trust in Güler's enormous potential, both on a sporting and commercial level. Although Güler doesn't have the desired minutes, Madrid believes that his potential hasn't been fully exploited yet.
At 19 years old, Arda has a great margin for improvement, and the club considers it too soon to think about his departure.
