Tottenham, Manchester United, and multiple Premier League clubs have been linked with Arda Guler amid his uncertainty at Real Madrid.

According to TBR Football, Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United have emerged as keen suitors for Real Madrid’s talented teenager, Arda Guler.

Both clubs are currently battling for a top-four finish in the Premier League, and Guler’s situation at the Santiago Bernabeu has drawn their attention amid concerns over his lack of playing time.

The 19-year-old Turkish international has found himself on the fringes of Carlo Ancelotti’s squad, making just three starts in La Liga this season.

Despite his limited appearances, Guler shone during UEFA Euro 2024, helping Turkey reach the quarter-finals and becoming only the third teenager in history to score and assist in the tournament, alongside legends Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney.

Such performances have only heightened expectations around him, making his current predicament at Real Madrid all the more frustrating.

Having rejected several transfer offers during the summer to stay in Madrid, Guler now faces the harsh reality of limited opportunities.

His potential is undeniable, as demonstrated by his impressive displays in international competitions; however, Ancelotti's preference for experienced players has sidelined the young star.

With the January transfer window approaching, clubs like Tottenham and Manchester United are considering the possibility of securing Guler on loan.

Spurs, under Ange Postecoglou, are actively seeking to bolster their attacking options, while United are keen to add more depth to their squad. Both clubs recognise that Guler possesses the skill set to make an immediate impact.

However, Newcastle United also has a vested interest in Guler. Manager Eddie Howe has previously attempted to recruit attacking players with a similar profile, such as Michael Olise from Crystal Palace and Jarrod Bowen from West Ham.

Real Madrid views Guler as a top talent and has no intention of selling him permanently. However, should his situation remain unchanged, a loan move may be on the cards.
