In a recent report, Fichajes claimed that Tottenham Hotspur are keen on recruiting Real Madrid playmaker Arda Guler. It has been stated that Spurs are eyeing a move to land the Turkish talent but could face competition from Bayer 04 Leverkusen in pursuit of him.
Guler’s Recent Form At The Santiago Bernabeu Stadium
Guler has struggled to make an impact at the Madrid club after missing a lot of games for them during this campaign due to injuries. The Turkish prospect has only made four appearances for Los Blancos this season but has failed to score or create a goal for them on all fronts.
The 18-year-old has seen all of his game-time in La Liga come as a substitute. Thus, it has been difficult for the youngster to catch the eye during his time at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium so far.
Guler is under contract at Real Madrid until the summer of 2029 which could make it tough for Spurs to sign him on the cheap at the end of this campaign.
Tottenham Hotspur Are Keen On Recruiting Guler: Is He A Prospect For The Future?
Guler is a technically gifted footballer who can make a few driving runs with the ball in the final third when he is playing regularly and with confidence on the pitch. He can strike the ball purely from long range and has even got the vision to set up a few promising chances for his teammates up top.
We can expect Guler to bolster the quality of Tottenham Hotspur boss Angelos Postecoglu’s attack in the long run. At 18, he is still quite raw and would need time to prove his worth at the highest level. Furthermore, he might struggle to adapt to life in the Premier League.
Still, there is no denying that Guler is a prospect to watch out for in the future, so Spurs would do well to lure him to English football later this year. However, the North London club would have to be patient with his progress if he wants to unlock the best out of the player in the long run.
