'I've bought a house!' - Arda Guler vows to keep 'fighting' for Real Madrid career as Turkey winger rubbishes transfer talk after dazzling Nations League display vs Hungary

LaLiga

Real Madrid

Leganes

<p>The 20-year-old made the switch from Fenerbahce to Madrid in 2023 for a deal worth an initial €20 million (£17m/$22m) after impressing in Turkey’s top flight. While his performances at Euro 2024 raised expectations for a bigger role under Carlo Ancelotti, his game time has been relatively limited.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>During his debut season, Guler managed 12 appearances for the Spanish giants. However, in the current campaign, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/endrick-arda-guler-decide-real-madrid-futures-lack-of-minutes-carlo-ancelotti/blt38d8fa441df3c54c" target="_blank">he has only started in 10 of Madrid’s 47 matches,</a> highlighting the challenges he has faced in securing a regular place in the team. Despite reports linking him with a move away, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/real-madrid-arda-guler-serie-a-transfer-carlo-ancelotti-ac-milan-inter-favourites-turkey-midfielder/bltd684ea432fa03cbc" target="_blank">including interest from AC Milan, Inter, and Arsenal,</a> Guler remains confident in his long-term future with Los Blancos. </p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Guler still has full faith in the career plan Madrid outlined for him and is determined to establish himself as a key player. Speaking about his situation to <a href="https://www.marca.com/futbol/real-madrid/2025/03/24/arda-gueler-madrid-me-dio-plan-todavia-creo.html" target="_blank"><em>Marca</em>,</a> he emphasised his commitment to the club, stating: "Real Madrid gave me a plan, and I still believe in it. I’m sure I’ll succeed at Real Madrid; I’ve even bought a house in Madrid. I work very hard and I’m always ready to play, as you could see in this match against Hungary. I love Real Madrid fans, and their support means a lot to me. I’m very grateful. I came to Real Madrid to play and be an important part of this team. And I won’t stop fighting until I achieve that."</p>

WHAT GULER SAID

<p>As Madrid continue to push for silverware in multiple competitions, Guler is eager to contribute to the team’s success and remains optimistic about his chances in the remainder of the season.</p><p>"We’re ready to fight for all three titles until the end of the season, and that’s going to be exciting," he said. "Madrid always fights to win every game and every title. Personally, my only desire is to play in every game and help my team win every title."</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Guler will be aiming to earn more minutes when Real Madrid returns to La Liga action against Leganes on March 30. He will also hope for a bigger role in the Copa del Rey clash against Real Sociedad, where Madrid hold a narrow 1-0 advantage heading into the second leg at the Santiago Bernabeu.</p>
