18-year-old Arda Guler is already making headlines and attracting the interest of several European football giants. Among others, Barcelona and Real Madrid are keeping an eye on this Turkish midfielder who plays for Fenerbahce, but they are not the only ones.
According to the media in his native country, PSG, Milan, Sevilla and Borussia Dortmund">Borussia Dortmund are also keeping an eye on his situation.
He is a classic playmaker who can also play on the right flank. He stands out for his creativity, vision and playmaking. Thanks to BeSoccer Pro, we can go further in his performance and say that he excels especially in completed dribbles, successful passes into the box and pre-assists and assists to his teammates. Undoubtedly, we are talking about an attacking talent, a '10' of those who tend to break the defences with his individual skills.
He has been aiming high for a long time, as in 2020/21 he already excelled with Fenerbahce U19 (10 goals in 22 games) and in the following season, when he made his debut with the first team, he scored 3 goals and 4 assists in 16 appearances. But his year of establishment has undoubtedly been this one. The player has played 35 official matches, with 6 goals and 6 assists between the Turkish League and Turkish Cup and European competitions (Champions League and Europa League qualifiers and 6 matches in the group stage of this tournament).
Guler has a termination clause of 18 million euros. Some say that Barca, with an overbooked midfield with Pedri, Gavi, De Jong, Kessie and the imminent Gundogan, have withdrawn from the bidding.
Madrid, who fit in with their recent habit of focusing their efforts on promising youngsters, are still in, although his arrival would, in principle, be for their reserve team. In Spain, Sevilla have been targeting him for some time. In fact, Monchi seemed to be close to bringing him to the Sanchez-Pizjuan, but his departure and the emergence of tough competitors seem to have weakened that option.
