Initially, Real Madrid seemed to be leading the race for Guler’s signature, but Barcelona’s recent approach has disrupted the transfer saga.
The Catalan club has proposed to pay €20-25 million for the young Turkish in two separate instalments and is willing to send him back to Fenerbahce on a season-long loan deal to satisfy both parties.
Barcelona is also willing to meet Guler’s salary for the upcoming season, which adds to their appeal. To entice the young player, the Spanish giants have offered the 18yo a 20-match guarantee, ensuring regular game-time—a priority for the Turkish talent.
The club’s manager Xavi’s reliance on young players could give them an advantage in meeting Guler’s desire for consistent playing opportunities.
It remains to be seen whether Barcelona’s latest offer will be enough to satisfy both Fenerbahce and Guler, but it poses a risk for Arsenal, who may lose out on the promising prospect.
The Gunners are one of my many who have been monitoring the situation of the young prodigy. But if they don’t move fast in the market for the Wizkid, it might be too late.
