Arsenal plot sensational move for Real Madrid prodigy

Arsenal are reportedly plotting another audacious January move that could mirror the club’s transformative signing of Martin Odegaard in 2021.

This time, the Gunners have set their sights on Real Madrid’s rising star, Arda Güler, a player many believe could follow in Odegaard’s footsteps as the next big name to thrive under Mikel Arteta.

The 19-year-old Turkish sensation joined Real Madrid in 2023 for €20 million amid massive hype, but his time in Spain has been less than ideal.

Struggling for consistent minutes under Carlo Ancelotti, Güler has featured in just 24 of the 48 games he’s been available for—a predicament eerily reminiscent of Odegaard’s time at the Santiago Bernabéu.

Now, Arsenal are reportedly ready to offer Güler the platform he craves, much like they did for Odegaard. The Turkish international lit up Euro 2024, becoming one of only three teenagers—alongside Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney—to score and assist in the tournament. His potential is undeniable, and his discontent at Real has sparked interest from several top clubs, with Arsenal leading the chase.

Güler remains committed to proving himself in Madrid but is said to be weighing his options as frustration mounts. Arsenal’s proven track record of nurturing young talent and turning castaways into superstars could make North London an enticing destination.

With Güler’s creativity and flair, Arteta could have yet another world-class playmaker in his arsenal—literally. Will this be the next chapter in Arsenal’s raid on Real Madrid’s untapped gems? The January transfer window could provide the answer.
