Guler, signed from Fenerbahce in 2023, has struggled for playing time at Real Madrid. With anticipated arrivals like Kylian Mbappe and Endrick Felipe further filling attacking positions, a loan is viewed as beneficial for Guler’s development.
That was mainly due to being injured for the first half of the season but since making a full recovery he has seen his playing time gradually increase.
Although, he has been limited to making brief appearances so far Guler has featured minutes in the last two league games.
Clubs like AC Milan, as reported by Estadio Deportivo, are reportedly interested in securing Guler on loan for the 2024-25 season. La Liga sides Las Palmas, Mallorca, and Real Sociedad are also mentioned as potential contenders.
If Real Madrid chooses the loan route, selecting the right environment for Guler’s growth will be critical.
Guler’s final loan destination remains to be seen, with interest from various clubs across Europe.
As things stand, manager Carlo Ancelotti appears pleased with Guler and has called for patience.
“I said what I think, nothing more. A young man like Guler if he warms up and doesn’t play, nothing happens; but Modric, at 39 years old, with five Champions League titles and being a legen; I can’t do it. He knows that,” Ancelotti recently said.
The 18-year-old is expected to join Turkiye for Euro 2024 this summer and will be hoping to see his playing time increase at Real as the season develops.
