Sports journalist Waheed Rizk Al-Masry believes that Guler’s first season with Real Madrid will be an exploration of the player’s capabilities in circumstances different from those he experienced with Fenerbahçe, and his ability to deal and adapt to them.
Al-Masry explains in his interview with TRT Arabi, “The biggest challenge facing the young Turkish star lies in the fact that he has become a player in Real Madrid,” noting that “playing for a club of this size carries with it a ceiling of great expectations. It is not limited to winning titles, but also winning them in a unique way.” good.”
He points out the amount of pressure placed on Guler, especially since he is still young and came from a country with a different language and culture, in addition to the fact that he will be accompanied by colleagues and competitors who have different football experiences than him.
With regard to calling him “Messi Turkey,” Al-Masry points out that simply giving this title to any player “carries with it opposite attractions, because it is compared to the original version, which is still playing football, and its owner was crowned the World Cup in late 2022, and not a player who retired since Years”.
The sports analyst stresses that the young player needs “mental toughness” so that his level does not decline above the green rectangle after a distinguished start, citing several names that suffered from these pressures.
Regarding the impact of the presence of Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti on the bench, he says that the latter does not like to be the star of the media in Madrid, unlike others who passed at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium, expecting that this matter would be in favor of Arda Guler, as Carlito is not known to criticize his players. In the media, he made them vulnerable to criticism from the masses and the media, and he is in his last season with Real Madrid, “so he will be less nervous than a coach looking to renew his contract.”
In turn, the Omani sports journalist Fadel Al Mazrouei says that Ancelotti is a successful coach in dealing with football talents, and gives importance to the human aspects, indicating that this pushes young stars to shine, develop and enhance self-confidence.
In his interview with TRT Arabi, Al-Mazroui inferred Ancelotti’s dealings with young Brazilian winger Vinicius Junior and fellow French midfielder Eduardo Camavinga, as he gave them confidence and they became two important cards in the Real Madrid squad.
He adds that Arda Guler “will not differ from the rest of the talents who trained under the leadership of Ancelotti,” stressing that the main factor in whether or not the player succeeds lies in “the extent of his technical and psychological readiness and the speed of his adaptation to the training method.”
And it is unlikely that the struggle between Real Madrid and Barcelona in the Mercato in order to win his services will put pressure on Arda Guler because he is at the beginning of his professional football career, pointing out that the latter is a talented player with whom Real Madrid contracted as part of his strategy to build a team for the future, where he will have minutes of play at the beginning to prove. His presence and merit in the “Royal” squad.
Regarding the most important obstacles that the young Turkish star may face in Spain, Al Mazrouei explains that Real Madrid’s midfield is full of stars, and includes a group of elements of experience and youth, but he added, “Arda will not face obstacles if he adapts to the training method and overcomes the language barrier.”
The sports analyst believes that the young international possesses the elements of success in Real Madrid because he is a very talented and skilled player, and “this is a guarantee of his success with any club,” noting that playing with the royal team and proving his presence with him “may represent the shortest path to brilliance and climbing the ladder of stardom.”
