Speculation continues to swirl around 18-year-old talent Arda Guler’s future at Real Madrid, with rumors suggesting a potential loan move due to limited playing time.
The attacking midfielder has been linked with a temporary move to several clubs across Europe at the end of the season to gain experience.

Despite reports of a potential loan, transfer insider Fabrizio Romano insists no decision has been made by Real Madrid.
He emphasizes that such decisions typically happen later in the season, and the club currently wants Guler to focus on performing at his best for Real Madrid.
“I can guarantee that nothing has been decided by Real Madrid on Arda Guler, despite some talk that he’s set to go out on loan next season. These kinds of decisions are not made in February or March. For now, they want Arda to perform at the best possible level in a Real Madrid shirt,” Romano said.
Since joining Real Madrid last summer, Guler has struggled with injuries and has seen limited playing time even when fit. The potential arrival of Kylian Mbappe and Endrick Felipe next season further raises questions about his future opportunities.
He has been part of the team since recovering from injury and has started his his playing time increase.
The attacking midfielder made another appearance today in the 1-1 away draw against Rayo Vallecano. He has featured in the last two league games – although both appearances were brief spells off the bench.
In total the Turkish international has made five appearances in all competitions this season.
Guler could see more playing time in upcoming matches, although starting opportunities remain uncertain. This period could prove crucial in determining his future with the club.
