Arsenal are once again being linked with Real Madrid midfielder Arda Güler, according to reports from Spanish outlet Grada 3.

The London side have shown interest in the young Turkish talent for some time and are now watching developments at the Bernabéu with keen attention.

Güler’s time in Spain has not gone entirely as expected. Since joining Real Madrid, the midfielder has struggled to secure consistent minutes on the pitch.

Under Xabi Alonso, the 20-year-old has found it difficult to establish himself as a regular starter, especially following the return of Jude Bellingham from injury.

His situation has sparked interest from several European clubs who are hoping to take advantage if he decides to move.

Reports suggest this season could be crucial in deciding Güler’s long-term future at Real Madrid.

If his playing time does not improve, a transfer could be on the cards next summer.

Many top European teams are keeping a close eye, waiting for the right opportunity to make a move, with the report claiming Arsenal are among those showing a keen interest.

Arsenal face competition

Arsenal were said to have approached Güler last season when his situation under former coach Carlo Ancelotti was uncertain.
