Bayer Leverkusen is keeping a close eye on the situation of Turkish prospect Arda Güler, with plans to sign him in the future due to his limited playing time at Real Madrid.
Güler made the move to Real Madrid in 2023 from Fenerbahçe at just 18 years old. However, despite coach Carlo Ancelotti’s high regard for his talents, he has struggled to earn a regular spot in the starting lineup.
In 16 La Liga matches this season, Güler has started only 5 times in 11 appearances, totaling 477 minutes of play. This limited time on the pitch is largely due to the fierce competition within Real Madrid’s attacking lineup, which boasts several high-profile players.
As reported by Sky Germany, Bayer Leverkusen is closely tracking Arda Güler’s situation. The German club’s interest in the Turkish talent began even before his move from Fenerbahçe, and they have since maintained contact with the player’s representatives.
Leverkusen recognizes Güler’s ability to generate creative solutions on the field and sees him as an ideal replacement for star player Florian Wirtz, should he decide to leave. If Güler expresses a desire to seek a new challenge away from the Santiago Bernabéu, the German club will be a strong contender to secure his signature.
