Carlo Ancelotti makes decision on Real Madrid star amid Liverpool interest – Reports

According to a report by MARCA, manager Carlo Ancelotti has made his decision regarding Real Madrid midfielder Arda Guler’s future, amid reported interest from Liverpool. The Turkish international joined the Spanish giants last summer but has been tipped for a move to secure more game time.

Guler played a minor role in the team that won La Liga and the UEFA Champions League last season. He appeared 12 times across competitions and scored six goals in his debut campaign with Los Blancos. At 19, the midfielder needs consistent football at the highest level to reach his full potential. Carlo Ancelotti has decided that he will be best served competing for a spot in the Real Madrid team. The Turkish midfielder has been impressive at Euro 2024, scoring a fine goal in his country’s opening fixture against Georgia. His passing ability and composure on the ball have surely attracted admirers who will be keen to test Real Madrid’s resolve. Liverpool is reportedly keen to acquire the midfielder, but it looks unlikely now, following the legendary manager’s decision. For now, Arda Guler will be fully focused on his nation’s next European fixture against Portugal on June 22.
