Eintracht Frankfurt want Guler from Madrid
Turkish wonderkid has struggled for minutes
Madrid could loan out the youngster to a German club
Guler has struggled to find regular playing time under Real Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti, in the 2024/25 campaign. The 20-year-old was expected to find a prominent squad role after he turned heads at the EURO 2024 with Turkey. However, he has managed to play a little over 1000 minutes across all competitions thus far and has appeared in just one La Liga game out of the club's last five outings.
