Return to Fenerbahçe? Arda Güler Reportedly Unhappy at Real Madrid, Considering Winter Loan
Arda Güler, who has not been given much playing time by Real Madrid’s coach Carlo Ancelotti this season, continues to make headlines in Spain. According to recent reports in the Spanish media, the 19-year-old player has expressed his desire to leave on loan in January due to his limited playing time.
Arda Güler, who transferred from Fenerbahçe to Real Madrid in the summer of 2023, saw more game time and even scored goals toward the end of last season, as Los Blancos had already secured the championship. After the season ended, he had a successful EURO 2024 campaign with the Turkish national team.
WAS EXPECTED TO BE IN THE STARTING 11
Following his impressive performance in EURO 2024 and with Toni Kroos retiring, it was expected that Fenerbahçe’s former star would be part of Real Madrid’s ideal starting 11 this season. However, things have not gone well for Arda Güler so far. The young star, along with youngster Endrick, has not been among Carlo Ancelotti‘s primary options.
ONLY 307 MINUTES
This season, Arda Güler has played a total of 12 matches across all competitions for Real Madrid. The talented left-footed player failed to score or assist in those 12 games, totaling only 307 minutes on the field. His lack of game time has frequently been highlighted in the Spanish press, which sometimes points out that Arda seems to be heading toward an uncertain future.
‘EXPRESSED HIS DESIRE TO LEAVE’
Meanwhile, a major claim about Arda Güler has emerged in the Spanish media. Spanish journalist Eduardo Inda reported that Fenerbahçe’s former star, who has had limited playing opportunities, is looking for a way out. Inda said, “Arda Güler is hardly playing; Saturday’s match was one of the few games he has appeared in over the past month. He’s very upset.
‘ANCELOTTI DOESN’T LIKE HIM; ONE POSSIBILITY IS FENERBAHÇE’
Ancelotti doesn’t like him; Davide likes him, but Carlo doesn’t, due to his lack of physicality. The player has indirectly raised the possibility of a loan move in the winter transfer window. One possibility is Mourinho‘s Fenerbahçe.”
