Arda Güler’s Real Madrid adventure presents a complex situation. Initial excitement was dampened by injuries, leaving him behind while the team solidified. Now, recovered but without a clear role, his development suffers.
Several clubs, including Leverkusen and Tottenham, see an opportunity and offer a pathway through a loan according to Sport.

However, Real Madrid is only open to the midfielder leaving if it is on a loan with assurances of playing time, wary of repeating past experiences of loaned players lacking opportunities.
Milan, where Brahim thrived on loan, is another option Madrid considers.
Güler faces a decision. He could accept a loan to gain crucial playing experience, but risks repeating experiences of other loaned players. Staying at Madrid offers uncertainty and limited opportunities under Ancelotti.
Odegaard’s success at Arsenal serves as a reminder of the challenge of breaking through at Real Madrid. This could influence Güler’s decision, potentially pushing him towards seeking a permanent exit to pursue his own path.
With four months remaining in the season, Güler hopes for more chances to solidify his place. However, knowing Ancelotti, opportunities might remain scarce.
The first step lies with Güler whether accept a loan and risk another stalled development, or push for a permanent move and carve his own path.
The 18-year-old made his La Liga home debut for Real in the 4-0 win over Girona on Saturday winning a penalty after his introduction to the game as a second half substitute.
Güler has four appearances in all competitons this season playing a total of 89 minutes of playing time.
