Real Madrid’s new signing leaving ‘unbelievable sensations’ in training – report
According to reports from MARCA, Arda Guler has left the Real Madrid management astounded with his quality. The sensations he is leaving during training sessions are said to be unbelievable.
He is reportedly not a big presence in the dressing room owing to his shy nature. After all, it has to be daunting walking into the Real Madrid dressing room at such a tender age. Yet, his nature in the dressing room does not stop him from transforming into a beast on the field.
The club are cautious regarding Guler because he is only 18 years of age. However, it is difficult to overlook the fact that his level of training is at par with the very best.
While it is normal in football to massively overhype young talents in a bid to improve their market value, the case of Guler appears different.
The youngster is living up to the hype generated around his name and it is close to unbelievable that Real Madrid signed him for €20 million plus add-ons.
If Guler can maintain his high level through pre-season and make his mark in the opportunities on the USA tour, he can be assured of a major role in the first-team setup this season. The pressure will be on Carlo Ancelotti to find him a tailor-made role.
One would expect the Turkish star to slot into the hole behind the two attackers as the playmaking midfielder, although he is being used as a right-winger in pre-season training aas well.
With Jude Bellingham making a strong case to play in the same position, however, it remains to be seen how the Merengues line up come August.
In 20 Super Lig appearances for Fenerbahce last season, the teenage sensation scored four goals and provided three assists. Needless to say, he will look to replicate his success in La Liga this season.

Report: Bournemouth set mammoth €80 million asking price for Real Madrid midfield target
Real Madrid have been handed a clear indication of what it would take to sign Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott, with the Premier League club valuing the England international at around €80 million, according to Bernabeu Digital.
Real Madrid have been monitoring the midfield market, and Scott has emerged as one of the names being considered for a potential move in 2027, although no offer has been made at this stage.
The 23-year-old remains under contract with Bournemouth until 2028, meaning Los Blancos would have to negotiate a significant fee if they decide to turn their interest into a formal proposal.
Bournemouth have already rejected €70m for Scott
Bournemouth’s €80m valuation is not without precedent, as Chelsea tested the waters last summer with an offer worth around €70m, only for the proposal to be rejected.
Furthermore, Liverpool are also monitoring the midfielder, increasing the potential competition for his signature should Bournemouth eventually decide to sell.
For now, the English club has no intention of allowing the midfielder to leave during the winter window, but his situation could become more interesting once the season ends.
With his contract still running for another two years, Bournemouth remain in a strong negotiating position and are even considering a renewal at this stage.
Real Madrid have already asked about Scott
As reported before, Real Madrid’s interest emerged during discussions with Bournemouth over Dean Huijsen.
During those talks, the Spanish giants asked about Scott and requested to be kept informed if the midfielder became available.
Real Madrid’s interest comes on the back of his ability to operate in different midfield roles.
The club feels that Scott has the technical quality to help progress possession, which is a crucial trait that the team currently lacks.
Scott could become a 2027 Real Madrid target
Real Madrid are not currently preparing an €80m bid, but the midfielder is on the club’s radar as they assess their longer-term options.
Ultimately, if Los Blancos decide that a new playmaker is required in 2027, Scott could become one of the leading candidates.
For now, however, Bournemouth’s valuation gives Real Madrid an idea of the financial commitment involved.
However, any move would also face competition from Premier League clubs, with Chelsea and Liverpool already showing interest.
