How ARDA GULER Shocked Real Madrid and The Whole Football World 😱
Arda Güler is balling for Real Madrid!
The 19-year-old Turkish midfielder, who was openly made fun of for more than half of the season, with memes made about his failures... is now one of the world's brightest youngsters, who seems to be getting stronger with every game!
His future at the most decorated club in the history of the game seems cloudless and today we are going to tell you how Arda has managed to reach a WHOLE NEW LEVEL!
After the latest fixture against Villarreal, in which Arda netted his 6th goal of the season, scoring a brace, our hero told us WHAT EXACTLY helped him keep his faith in himself in the disappointing first half of the season:
"Even when I wasn't playing, Ancelotti always communicated with me, he told me to be patient, keep working and your time will come, those words gave me confidence."
Another secret of Arda's revival lies in the wonderful atmosphere within the squad: players take care of each other and live through all the challenging times as one big friendly family.
"Arda Güler is a talent, a gem. We have taken very good care of him throughout the year, together we have supported him and treated him like our little brother, he is going to bring a lot of joy to the Real Madrid fans," assured Joselu.
Well, sure, support is important, but a proper professional attitude to yourself and your career is crucial to succeed in the number one game. At the start of the season, Arda Güler received his own development plan: despite having bad luck with injuries, the Turkish midfielder never gave up working hard in order to achieve his goals! As a results, in early April, Carrusel publication revealed a shocking news:
"Arda Güler has increased his muscle mass by 8 kilograms with gym work to be able to compete at the highest level and avoid injuries."
Then, in late April, when Arda was in his best form this season with Madrid almost securing the league title, Carlo Ancelotti decided to start using the new potential Real Madrid superstar, giving him plenty of playing minutes...
...and Güler showed the whole world what MAGIC he can do!
April 26 - the match-winning goal against Real Sociedad, which brought the Merengues as close as possible to La Liga gold.
May 11 - a goal against Granada and his first 90 minutes in Los Blancos jersey.
May 14 - a goal against Deportivo Alaves.
May 19 - a brace against Villarreal and his second full appearance for Madrid.
Prior to that, Güler had produced only one goal against Celta Vigo, having only 98 minutes played... However, now Real Madrid and Arda are enjoying each other. The Turk's stats amaze the whole football world:
-this beast scores an average of one goal per 73 minutes, which is the best minutes-per-goal ratio in the top 5 European leagues 23/24;
-it took the Turk 6 shots on target in La Liga to land 6 goals!
-Arda has already surpassed Hazard in the number of La Liga goals - the Belgian had 4;
The global media hype around Güler is now at an all-time high! There are thousands of tweets like these, and when giants like ESPN are talking about you, you know that the whole world is watching your progress!
Real Madrid supporters are excited about their new beast - just look at the statistics of Güler's Twitter post and what Madridistas are writing under it.
As you may guess, there are more and more candidates willing to sign Madrid's new star on loan deal - according to Fabrizio Romano, 5-6 clubs are actively pursuing this opportunity, but the Spanish giants don't even want to listen to their offers. And that's an absolutely reasonable point! Take the amazing display Arda showed against Villarreal, one of the best teams in the second half of the La Liga season!
The hero himself claims that he has fully adapted to the club:
"I have completely adapted to the team, everyone is helping me, I want to keep scoring goals to make my teammates and the people who believe in me happy. I never believed I would get numbers like this. I always work hard to be better, but I am proud & happy to get these stats."
Madrid Zone, a popular Twitter account, even reports that Ancelotti will be counting on the whiz kid in the Champions League final!
Carlo Ancelotti is delighted with the youngster:
Arda has something special. The ball is in love with Güler! The team loves Arda Güler, we are very happy to have him here. He has a gift, he scores goals even when he doesn't deserve it
His position? The closer to the penalty area, the better."
"I LOVE Football, I am in LOVE with the ball," the teen confirms Ancelotti's words about his special relationship with the ball
In fact, we find it very interesting HOW Real Madrid uses the 19-year-old starlet, who mostly operated on the right attacking wing at Fenerbahçe: Arda made 6 appearances as a right winger, bagging 4 goals, made 4 appearances as an attacking midfielder, bagging 1 goal, and made one appearance as a left winger
