Jose Mourinho wants Arda Guler at Fenerbahce

Fenerbahce are monitoring the situation of Real Madrid wonderkid Arda Guler. The Turkish player is not receiving much playing time under Carlo Ancelotti, who has only granted him 291 minutes on the pitch across 10 games, without completing any of them this season. According to the latest reports from 'Diario AS' and Turkish outlet 'Haber Ekspres', the side led by Jose Mourinho are in full motion to bring Guler to the Super Lig.
Sporting director Mario Branco is said to have already began talks with Madrid over the 19-year-old. Fenerbahce are aware Real Madrid have no intention of selling Guler on a permanent basis, as he is regarded the future of the Bernabeu, and will therefore work to land him on a loan deal this January transfer window. Club president, Ali Koc could also get involved in negotiations with the forward to convince him to return to Istanbul.
'Diario AS' suggest that the deal could advanced if Fenerbahce be willing to pay for the player's salary. However, the Turks will also have to hope that Real Madrid's conditions for the loan are not too costly. Jose Mourinho is reportedly fully on board with the idea of Guler in Turkey, having previously mentioned that "he is a top-quality player and has a huge personality."
The deal for Arda Guler is also said to be Fenerbahce's idea to counter the signing of Victor Osimhen by arch-rival Galatasaray. Fenerbahce currently sit in fourth position in the league (with one game still to play), while city-rivals Galatasaray find themselves at the top of the Turkish flight.
