Michael Owen on Arda Güler: A priceless experience!

Michael Owen, a former footballer, has commented on the performance of Arda Güler, who was transferred to Real Madrid from Fenerbahçe. Owen, one of the iconic figures of English football, made notable remarks to the Spanish outlet AS.

Stating that Arda Güler is having a priceless experience, Michael Owen said, "I am aware that Arda has not been getting much playing time, but I went through a similar process myself. When you are young, there is such a balance in your career. You can go to a smaller team and play every match, or you can fight and train with the best in the world every week. This is a priceless experience."

THE FODEN EXAMPLE

Pointing to Phil Foden's development as an example for Arda Güler, Michael Owen stated, "Look at Phil Foden at Manchester City; his statistics were quite low and he is only 23 years old. However, Guardiola took a close interest in him and turned him into the player he is today."

Emphasizing that the teammates Arda Güler is competing with for a spot at Real Madrid will not be there forever, Michael Owen added, "He has players like Toni Kroos and Luka Modric in his position; Arda is in safe hands there. But Kroos and Modric will not be there forever. So, opportunities will arise for young players."
