The talented midfielder joined Real Madrid at the wrong time



Arda Guler is one of Real Madrid’s outstanding young talents currently. The Turkish morning star arrives at Los Blancos in the summer of 2023 from Fenerbahce. Contrary to initial expectations, consecutive injuries caused Arda’s development trajectory to go astray.

Leaving all doubts behind, coach Carlo Ancelotti still has full faith in his student. The Italian strategist allowed Arda to take ‘slow’ steps in the Real Madrid shirt. This season, the 2005 midfielder made one appearance in La Liga. 

Sharing with MARCA newspaper, former German national player Lukas Podolski commented on Arda’s case: ” The future will give us the answer whether it is really right for him to join Real Madrid or not. Perhaps , Arda signed with Real Madrid too early “.

“He is a great talent. However, Arda has not yet shown the best version of himself. He will not be a starter in the coming months. It is not easy when you have a place at Real Madrid after joining the team from Fenerbahce”.



Real Madrid is on a very different level. In giant teams like that, you can’t tell us to give him more time. There’s not much time left.”
