Arsenal Step Up January Push for Real Madrid’s Arda Guler

Real Madrid are currently described as unwilling sellers, with Xabi Alonso viewing the playmaker as a first‑team regular.

Overview

  • CaughtOffside, citing Fichajes, reports Arsenal are preparing an aggressive approach for the 20-year-old in this window.
  • The plan reportedly favors a six‑month loan with a view to a permanent summer move, echoing Martin Ødegaard’s path from Madrid.
  • Fichajes places a valuation near €80m, though persuading Madrid to negotiate is portrayed as unlikely at present.
  • Liverpool and Manchester United are also linked, suggesting Premier League competition if Madrid soften their stance.
  • Guler has grown into a starter under Alonso this season, with reports noting double‑digit goal contributions across La Liga and Europe.
