Real Madrid have a fantastic track record in recent years when it comes to identifying top talents from around the club. The likes of Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo, Eduardo Camavinga, Fede Valverde, Jude Bellingham, Eder Militao, Aurelien Tchouameni and more are proof of that. Endrick. who will be arriving in the summer, also looks like a superstar in the making and scored the winner for Brazil against England at Wembley recently.
Another highly-rated youngster Real Madrid signed recently is Arda Guler. But his start to life at Santiago Bernabeu has been filled with challenges.
Guler created a lot of excitement with his performances in training after arriving in the summer. But things would go south quickly. He picked up three separate injuries before even appearing for Real Madrid.
Guler would ultimately make his first-team debut in January of this year. Chances have been hard to come by for him though. According to stats from Transfermarkt, he has made 7 appearances for Real Madrid and played 98 minutes of football in total.
Bayern Munich ready to offer €40m for Real Madrid player
Guler might have barely featured at Real Madrid but it looks like his reputation has only been enhanced since joining the club. As reported by Defensa Central (via Madrid Universal), Bayern Munich are interested in Guler and are willing to offer up to €40 million to sign him.
It feels unlikely that Real Madrid would be willing to give up on Guler just yet though. He has not even spent a single season at the club.
Real Madrid are a club who have shown immense patience when it comes to developing their youngsters. Most fans will remember the struggles that the likes of Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo faced in their first few seasons in Spain before discovering their best form. There is no reason not to do the same when it comes to Guler.
