Arda Guler told Ancelotti, “If I’m not going to play, I should leave”; Mourinho also called.

After missing three points with a last-minute goal in the Madrid derby, it was claimed that Arda, who did not play in the match, had a stern conversation with Carlo Ancelotti. In La Liga’s 8th week, Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid ended in a 1-1 draw. Real took the lead in the 64th minute with Militao but could not prevent Correa’s goal in the 90+5 minute, resulting in a 1-1 finish. The match was briefly halted in the 69th minute due to objects thrown from the stands but continued afterward. With this result, Real Madrid is second in the league with 18 points, while Atletico Madrid rises to 16 points in third place.

Arda Güler did not play in the match. Ancelotti made his first substitution in the 86th minute and made a total of three changes, replacing Modric, Vinicius, and Rodrygo with Vazquez, Endrick, and Fran Garcia.

A shocking claim from the Spanish press emerged about Arda Guler. According to a report on Defensa Central’s Real Madrid portal, Real Madrid Exclusivo, the national player was very unhappy about not getting minutes in the Atletico Madrid match and told the Italian coach after the match, “If I’m not going to play, I should leave.”

The report stated that Arda believes he has the capacity to play, even in Mbappe’s absence, and if he continues to not receive opportunities, he may consider leaving during the winter transfer window.

Mourinho Calls Arda for Transfer
Additionally, a noteworthy report about Arda Guler was published in Marca after the Madrid derby. According to Paul Polo, Fenerbahce’s coach, Jose Mourinho, personally called Arda during the summer transfer window, expressing his desire to have him on the team. However, it was noted that Real Madrid’s management and Ancelotti preferred to keep Arda on the team due to his performance at the end of last season and in EURO 2024.

What Has Arda Guler Done This Season?
The 19-year-old national player has played a total of 257 minutes in 8 matches for Real Madrid this season.

“IF HE WANTS TO COME, WHY NOT?”
Mourinho responded to the question, “Would you like to see Arda Guler back in the team?” during his signing ceremony by saying, “If he wants to come, why not? If you play for a team like Real Madrid and you are a young player, you wouldn’t want to leave. If he truly loves his club and wants to come back, we would like him to join, especially if Real Madrid pays 75% of his salary.”

In an interview with HT Spor, the Portuguese coach also stated: “Real Madrid is the biggest club in the world. Recently, they have been incorporating young players into their squad, and they are doing it very well. We see that players are fighting to stay there and succeed. A player should think, ‘I am good enough to play here, and I am not afraid to be here.’ Young Arda shows this great character. He has top-level quality.”
