Arsenal are reportedly eyeing attacking reinforcements this summer, with Turkish playmaker Arda Güler emerging as a potential target. The Gunners have previously shown interest in the 20-year-old, who joined Real Madrid in 2023. However, Güler’s time at the Santiago Bernabéu has been underwhelming, as he has made just 43 appearances across all competitions, most of which have come off the bench.
Real Madrid’s limited reliance on Güler has raised questions among fans and experts across Spain and Europe. Recent reports have shed light on his relationship with head coach Carlo Ancelotti, which is said to be less than ideal. According to Relevo, Ancelotti has been unconvinced by Güler’s performances in training, particularly his defensive contributions. This has led to the midfielder struggling to secure a regular spot in the starting lineup.
The strained dynamic between Ancelotti and Güler could benefit Arsenal, especially if the Italian manager remains at Real Madrid for another season, as expected. With the pair unlikely to resolve their differences, Real Madrid may be open to letting Güler leave, either on loan or permanently. Arsenal’s previous successful dealings with the Spanish giants could give them an edge in securing the talented midfielder’s signature.
As the summer transfer window approaches, Arsenal will be weighing their options, and Güler could emerge as a key target to bolster their attacking options.
