Arsenal’s rumored interest in Real Madrid’s young sensation Arda Güler has gained traction recently, but the Spanish giants have made their stance clear. Los Blancos are reportedly committed to keeping the 18-year-old midfielder at the Santiago Bernabéu, firmly shutting down speculation about a potential departure.
Güler, a highly-rated talent, joined Real Madrid in the summer and has impressed despite limited opportunities in Carlo Ancelotti’s star-studded squad. His technical skill and vision have drawn comparisons to former Real Madrid star Mesut Özil, further fueling interest from clubs like Arsenal.
With Mikel Arteta’s side currently trailing Premier League leaders Liverpool by nine points, the January transfer window represents an opportunity for reinforcements. The Gunners, who successfully signed Martin Ødegaard from Real Madrid in the past, might have been hoping for a similar scenario with Güler.
However, Real Madrid remains firm in their plans for the Turkish international. Ancelotti sees Güler as a key part of the club’s future, and any discussions around a transfer have reportedly been dismissed outright.
As Arsenal explores other creative midfield options to bolster their title challenge, it remains clear that prying Arda Güler away from Real Madrid will be an uphill battle. Fans can expect more updates as the January window approaches, but for now, the talented playmaker appears set to stay in Madrid.
