Arsenal are reportedly set to make a move for Real Madrid’s Arda Guler, with the Premier League club poised to bring the talented Turkish midfielder to the Emirates.
The Gunners are drawing parallels between Guler’s situation at Madrid and that of Martin Odegaard, who made a successful move to North London after struggling for opportunities at the Bernabeu.
Guler, 19, has been hailed as one of Europe’s brightest prospects but has found it difficult to secure a regular starting spot at Madrid, particularly with the club’s midfield options being so stacked.
Mikel Arteta and his staff are impressed by Guler’s technical ability, vision, and maturity on the ball—traits that mirror those Odegaard displayed during his time at Real Madrid before moving to London. While Madrid are unlikely to let go of the Turkish gem easily, Arsenal are preparing to make a compelling case to bring him to the English top flight.
The potential signing could be one of the most exciting moves of the transfer window as the Gunners look to further strengthen their squad with another young, promising talent.
