There are increasing indications that Luka Modric is close to leaving Real Madrid, and despite his starting lineup against Atletico Madrid, the player will see a reduction in his playing minutes this season compared to last year.
Modric is aware of the current situation of the team, and he knows that Real Madrid’s future depends largely on the young Arda Guler, and despite Guler not getting any minutes in the derby, Modric believes that he will have a prominent role in the team’s future.
According to information from the Spanish newspaper “Marca”, the legend Luka Modric spoke to Guler to encourage him: “You will be a leader here, and you will participate in many of these matches.
Coach Carlo Ancelotti decided not to include Guler in the match against Atletico, which raised questions among some members of the club about the need to give the youngster a chance.
Guler’s playing minutes are expected to increase gradually, but what he has presented so far this season has not been at his usual level, which may be the reason for his lack of participation.
Despite receiving interesting loan offers last summer, Guler has remained committed to staying at Real Madrid, expressing his desire to fight for his place in the team.
His attitude, hard work and leadership have impressed everyone at the club, but they will be hoping he shows more determination when he takes to the pitch and everyone is looking forward to Guler having the same confidence he showed with Turkey at the European Championship.
