Real Madrid have won more than a dozen enquiries related to one of their midfielders, AS reports, citing anonymous sources.
Arda Guler joined Fenerbahce last summer after Los Blancos beat FC Barcelona to sign.
However, while the Catalans have settled for including the Turkish foreigner in their squad due to a season-ending injury, Gavi, and then Pedri and Frenkie de Jong, who have been absent more than once at other times this season, Guler has been a replacement regime in Madrid. Just 98 minutes in all competitions after waiting until January to make his debut.
These cases increase the option of Guler going out on loan, but with the departure of Luka Modric and Toni Kroos, if they do not renew their expired contracts, there may be an opportunity for the 19-year-old at the Bernabeu. in the coming months.
Despite this, more than 10 have enquired about Güler according to AS, with Real Betis and Sevilla leading the way.
Sevilla were linked with Güler before he agreed to sign for Madrid, and several Turkish media reported the Andalusian’s interest in him.
This time Güler will stay in Madrid but neither the player nor his team will have the last word.
The final decision rests with Madrid, who would prefer that, if the youngster leaves temporarily, he goes to a team that is going to compete in the Champions League.
That option is mathematically out of the question for Sevilla, as Betis are 16 numbers off fourth in La Liga. But that doesn’t mean that Guler can’t elsewhere in Spain or Europe forge himself into the elite.
According to movement expert Matteo Moretto, Carlo Ancelotti’s side have asked Guler to leave on loan, although the Italian obviously believes in his potential.
“He’s a wonderful talent. He’s taken a step forward a lot and now he’s playing with more intensity. He’s got a long career here, there’s no doubt about that,” Ancelotti said last month, after Guler’s first goal in a Madrid shirt in a 4. -0 home win over Celta Vigo.
Whether Ancelotti gives him more time to play as Madrid closes in on the La Liga name and, in all likelihood, their 15th Champions League crown, is another question.
