Mourinho praises ‘incredible’ Guler amid battle for minutes
The Turkish midfielder came off the bench in Madrid’s 4-1 win over Rayo Vallecano on Saturday, helping to steady the side under pressure.
Real Madrid's coach Jose Mourinho praised midfielder Arda Guler on Monday, ahead of their upcoming La Liga match against Elche. Guler, a 21-year-old Turkish player, has been competing with record signing Yan Diomande and Brahim Diaz for playing time. Mourinho highlighted Guler's incredible quality of play, praising his vision, decision-making, playmaking, stability, and creativity.
Despite not being assured of a starting spot, Guler has shown strong links with French forward Kylian Mbappe, often combining well to score goals. Mourinho also expressed that Vinicius Junior, another player at Madrid, is yet to reach his peak form, despite scoring one goal this season. The team currently trails La Liga leaders Barcelona by three points.
