Arsenal are having a look at Real Madrid forward Arda Guler ahead of the January transfer window, according to the Independent journalist Miguel Delaney.
The Gunners are showing interest in the Turkey international, who is increasingly upset about the lack of minutes following Kylian Mbappe’s arrival.
While Madrid do not want to lose him, there is the possibility of allowing him to leave on loan, and they could even sanction a permanent deal with a buy-back clause included.
A temporary deal could appeal to Arsenal in January, as manager Mikel Arteta could do with attacking reinforcements heading into the second half of the season.
Guler only has an assist in 14 appearances this term, but he has started just five times and is yearning for regular playing chances, which the Gunners could offer him.
The 19-year-old bagged a goal and two assists in five games during the European Championship in the summer and also has a goal and an assist in six Nations League games.
Guler ended last season with six goals in ten La Liga appearances, and landing him could be huge for Arsenal.
While both Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Martinelli are decent players, Guler is capable of giving them a run for their money in the Arsenal starting XI.
The teenage sensation is desperate to prove a point and could follow Martin Odegaard’s footsteps by establishing himself as a key player for the club after struggling for chances at Madrid.
