The Arda Güler case has exploded. The footballer has requested to leave the team of Real Madrid at the end of the current season if Carlo Ancelotti continues to occupy the position of coach. The lack of playing time together with the failure to fulfil promises of greater prominence have led the footballer to consider a change of team in order to continue growing as an athlete
Güler loses patience with Ancelotti
Arda Güler cannot understand his current situation at Real Madrid After the preseason and all the expectations that had arisen with the idea that the club itself, as well as Carlo Ancelotti, had assured him that he would have a much more important role in reality than he has had. Güler has played 967 minutes in 39 official matches, most of those minutes as a substitute in the final minutes of matches.
The Turkish footballer has informed the club that he will leave the team if Ancelotti continues to be in charge of the squad next season, according to sources at GRADA3. The Güler-Ancelotti relationship is not the best, after the fact that the playmaker went so far as to ask him for explanations in private, once he had been left out of the squad for the last few games, even despite the significant losses in the squad
Güler has the perception that he has been offered more than he has actually had. After a first season in which a knee injury sidelined him for six months, he came back and revalidated everything with seven goals in just six games, but this season he has played a secondary role in the team, even when the injuries of other teammates would have allowed him to take advantage of the opportunity to become a starter.
The Güler case explodes against Girona
In recent matches, such as the one played yesterday against Girona, Ancelotti would have rotated many of his players, but Arda Güler has not played a single minute, which is surprising to say the least. Although the Turkish player has not had the minutes he feels he deserves, he was usually involved
More surprising was the response of the Italian coach when asked about Güler’s situation. Carlo Ancelotti replied with a brief four-word sentence, “He’s ready to play”. This makes it clear that in recent days the player and coach may have had some kind of confrontation that explains the lack of playing time for the Turk in his last few matches.
Real Madrid have faith in his power
Real Madrid have no doubts about his quality. The club’s directors understand that Güler is one of the greatest promises in European football and do not consider a definitive sale to be a viable option, but rather the possibility of loaning him out so that he can gain experience and return with more experience and integrated into the team
Carlo Ancelotti concedes that the Turkish player’s talent is indisputable, but he has decided not to give him continuity as the competition within the Real Madrid squad is tough. As a result, a split has emerged between the player and the coach himself, as the latter considers that the player has more than demonstrated that he is performing well enough to have a greater participation.
The fate of Arda Güler will depend on the continuity of Ancelotti on the bench. If the technical director and coaching staff remain at the helm, it is likely that the attacking midfielder will look for a courtesy exit where he has the possibility of practising something that he has not yet managed to do consistently with Real Madrid.
