Real Madrid starlet hits back at Liverpool midfielder – ‘Isn’t 6 goals enough to shut you up?’
Arda Guler and Dominik Szoboszlai were at the centre of attention during Turkey’s game against Hungary in the UEFA Nations League.
In a game that saw Hungary incur a heavy 3-0 defeat, Szoboszlai and Guler were involved in an on-field spat.
Words were exchanged between the two, with Szoboszlai sparking further controversy by posting a cryptic message on social media, reading, “1,088”.
This was a veiled dig at Guler’s lack of game-time at Real Madrid. After all, the Turkish international has played exactly 1,088 minutes of football for Los Blancos this season, falling behind in the pecking order.
Arda Guler’s response to Szoboszlai
Szoboszlai’s tweet didn’t go well with Guler, who has now issued a response through social media.
The Real Madrid starlet posted a picture on his Instagram story with the captain, “This guy is a joke. Isn’t 6 goals enough to shut you up?”
Guler’s message to Szoboszlai was a reference to Turkey’s 6-1 aggregate win over Hungary, which helped the nation secure promotion to the top tier of UEFA Nations League for the first time ever.
Hungary’s defeat on the night also meant that they have lost to Turkey at home for the first time since 2006.
Keeping that in mind, Guler would certainly have the last laugh, especially considering the fact that he had played a key role in Hungary’s defeat, notably scoring the second goal on the night.
It now remains to be seen whether or not Szoboszlai issues any further response on social media.
Real Madrid youngster Endrick continues to attract interest from several clubs ahead of another potential loan move in the upcoming January transfer window.
The latest side considering a move for the Brazilian forward is Aston Villa.
Indeed, according to reports relayed by Bernabeu Digital, the Premier League club are interested in signing the Real Madrid striker on loan in January.
No minutes for Endrick
Endrick has had very limited opportunities under Jose Mourinho this season. Across Real Madrid’s nine matches in La Liga and the UEFA Champions League, the Brazilian has played just four minutes, coming on in the 86th minute against Elche.
Such limited playing time has left the young forward struggling to gain the minutes and experience needed to develop his talent at Real Madrid.
As such, another loan move, like last January when he left for Olympique Lyon, could offer him a chance to play more regularly and continue his progression.
Aston Villa, managed by Unai Emery, have now emerged as an interested party to acquire the Brazilian international’s services on loan for the second half of the season.
AC Milan also interested in Endrick
Howver, Aston Villa are not the only club monitoring Endrick’s situation. AC Milan have also renewed their interest in the Brazilian forward.
The Rossoneri already held an interest in the 20-year-old forward during the summer transfer window and are knocking on the doors once again now.
In fact, some reports in Italy even go on to suggest that the youngster is ready to pounce on the opportunity to sign for the Serie A giants.
For now, however, there have been no concrete developments or formal approaches from any interested club.
Real Madrid are understood to be open to allowing Endrick to leave on loan, but they are not considering a permanent sale as they still have a lot of faith in the promising attacker whom they signed from Palmeiras.
With Aston Villa and AC Milan both interested, the coming months could prove important in determining where the young Brazilian will continue his development.
