Real Madrid whizkid turned down La Liga rivals in January

When it comes to her first season at Real Madrid, Arda Guler has not had the smoothest of debut seasons. After being brought in over the summer, the young player sustained an injury during the preseason, and then he went on to suffer two more ailments, which caused his debut to be postponed until January.

Since then, Guler has been in good health and feeling well, but Carlo Ancelotti has not been able to give him a lot of playing time. This is due to the fact that there is a lot of competition for positions, and the manager does not have total trust in him.

As a consequence of this, there was a period of time in January when there were discussions about Guler departing the club via a loan agreement that would last until the conclusion of the season.

They desired Guler, Granada.

At this time, according to Anton Meana on SER (with a citation from AS), Guler had been a transfer target for the La Liga team Granada during the transfer window that took place in January.

The Andalusian club had a brilliant winger named Bryan Zaragoza leave for Bayern Munich over the winter, and they hoped to replace him with the Real Madrid whizkid so that they could continue their success.

The signing of Zaragoza by Bayern caused Granada to be without a player of exceptional quality. The information was disclosed by Meana. “Granada called Arda Guler and suggested that he go there to play the second half of the season,” Meana said.

Granada is home to a number of individuals that have a positive connection with Guler due to the fact that they were acquainted with him during his time in Turkey. They decided to summon Guler as a result of Bryan’s departure.He wanted to place a wager on Madrid and inform them in a courteous manner. Meaning that he has no interest in playing anyplace else,” Meana stated.

Turning things around

There has never been any uncertainty over Guler’s capacity, and the kid has shown that he is capable of performing at a high level practically every time he has on the field.

The 19-year-old player earned his debut in the encounter against Real Sociedad the previous week, and he made it count by scoring the game-winning goal.

By the time the match was over, Ancelotti had already declared that Guler would not be leaving Real Madrid on loan for the summer but would instead continue to remain with the club.
