Real Madrid’s business in the summer transfer window was said to be complete after the signing of Jude Bellingham, Fran Garcia, and Joselu. However, it now appears that the ɾєρօɾτs were premature.
According to an update fromMario Cortegana,Los Blancosare seriously interested in the signing of Fenerbahce star Arda Guler.
The youngster is everything Real Madrid are looking for in a new acquisition – young, talented and available at a ɾєɑȿօɴable price (€17.5 million release clause) considering his quality. The men in white have been scouting his profile for a while now, but their attention is now turning into a serious interest.
Two options lie on Real Madrid’s table concerning the young prodigy’s potential arrival, for a direct spot in the first team looks increasingly difficult to assure. After all, the squad already has seven players competing forthree starting spots in midfield.
One of the ideas Real Madrid consider, thus, is to sign the player and loan him back to Fenerbahce for a season. Such an approach would give them ample time to clear the field by next season, especially given that the veterans will be closer to leaving than staying.
The second option is to sign the Turkish star and sєɴԀ him to Castilla. However, the chances of a player of his quality accepting the subsidiary role are minimal.
Guler has no shortage of options on his table, and the race for his signing could well run deep into the transfer window. Barcelona, AC Milan, and Newcastle United are just a few of the order options the youngster can choose from.
Earlier this week, media ɾєρօɾτed that the 18-year-old was one of thethree long-term targetsReal Madrid had identified and shortlisted. With this perhaps being their best chance of catching their target young, it remains to be seen how farLos Blancosfight for his acquisition
