National football player Arda Güler, who plays for Real Madrid, appeared on the field in the purple-white jersey for the first time in the last 32 rounds of the Spanish King’s Cup.
In the Copa del Rey, Real Madrid will host Arandina at Estadio El Montecillo. The 18-year-old midfielder, who was transferred from Fenerbahçe to Spanish giant Real Madrid at the beginning of the season, had the opportunity to wear his new team’s jersey for the first time in an official match.
Coach Carlo Ancelotti preferred Arda Güler, who started the match in the starting 11, on the left side of the midfield.
ARDA ON THE FIELD AFTER 6.5 MONTHS
Arda Güler, who played his last official match with the National Team in the European Championship Qualifiers on June 19, 2023, in Samsun, where they beat Wales 2-0, scored the 2nd goal of the Crescent-Stars team in that match. Arda played an official match against Arandina approximately 6.5 months later.
Arda Güler was injured during Madrid’s pre-season camp in the USA and had meniscus surgery on his right knee on August 14. Güler, who started training with the team on September 21 after his injury lasted about two months, was injured again on September 26 and was away from the field for a while. Arda Güler, who did not take any risks after this process and worked separately from the team from time to time, returned to the green fields after 201 days.
