Statement on Arda Güler from Galatasaray assistant coach!

Galatasaray Assistant Coach Ismael Garcia Gomez has made statements regarding Arda Güler.

Gomez expressed that Real Madrid is the right destination for Arda Güler. A statement came from the Galatasaray side regarding Arda Güler, who transferred from Fenerbahçe to Real Madrid at the beginning of the season.

"IF THEY PLAY WELL FOR TWO MATCHES, THEY ARE THE 'TURKISH MESSI'..."

According to NtvSpor, citing Marca, Galatasaray Assistant Coach Ismael Garcia Gomez emphasized that Arda Güler is in safe hands at Real Madrid. Highlighting that Turkey is an emotional country, Gomez said, "There is a passionate football climate. This is a double-edged sword for young players. If they play well for two matches, they are called the 'Turkish Messi'; if they play poorly for two matches, people say 'this won't work'."

It was noted that Arda Güler's situation is different, as he played for one of the country's biggest teams at a young age and delivered good performances. Stating that Arda Güler has an attractive style of play in addition to his quality, Gomez said, "When you watch him, he immediately grabs your attention. Moreover, he transferred to the biggest club in the world."

It was mentioned that Gomez was asked whether the injuries Arda Güler experienced were a result of the training intensity at Real Madrid. Ismael Garcia Gomez reportedly said, "I don't think Arda's physical difficulties are related to Real Madrid's training level. Real Madrid is a team that plays many matches. Therefore, the number of intense training sessions is very high. Arda is a young boy who has come to a new country. A new culture, a new language... The only thing you can do is go out on the pitch and play against the other 11 people. These changes can create stress. Maybe stress can trigger these kinds of problems, I don't know. What I do know is this: Arda is a young footballer who needs to continue working very hard."

It was stated that Gomez emphasized the need to be patient with Arda Güler and to give the player time to develop. Stating that Real Madrid is the best environment for Arda Güler, the coach said, "I think it will be very beneficial for him to leave the environment in Turkey and come to Real Madrid," and reminded that players like Vinicius and Rodrygo also went through similar stages.

Arda Güler, who has appeared in 7 matches with the Real Madrid jersey, has scored 1 goal.
