At the time, Manchester City did not bid too much for the young Turkish promise. He allowed Real Madrid and Barcelona to be the ones who really disputed the player’s signing.

Seeing the level that the footballer has and what he is doing at Real Madrid, despite the few opportunities he has had, they are regretting it. “If Madrid puts him to play frequently, that boy can be unstoppable, he is very good,” is what Guardiola, with his technical team, thinks of Güler.

He considers that he could be a perfect replacement for Bernardo Silva, who will leave the English club sooner rather than later. Now Real Madrid has his services, at least, until June 30, 2029.

All members of Real Madrid see Arda as a footballer with a great future . He started off on the wrong foot, because he was injured in his first five months, and then he had to strengthen his muscles and adapt to the squad, and that cost him, as is normal for a 19-year-old kid who goes through that situation.

Next season he is expected to have many more opportunities. The departure of Toni Kroos could give him more minutes in the midfield . Although for Ancelotti he is a footballer who has to be close to the goal because he has a goal, they also see him with the qualities to play as a midfielder.

With his level he can play in any position in midfield and attack, except as a pivot . That opens many doors for him in the team, because next season will be very long and there are many games. Ancelotti will have to manage the load of minutes by rotating the squad.
