"Arsenal and Newcastle United are reportedly among the transfer suitors for Real Madrid's talented young attacking midfielder Arda Guler. However, it seems clear that Los Blancos don't want to sell the Turkey international, as they're ready to ask for as much as 150m to let him go. That's according to Fichajes, who add that that price surely wouldn't be affordable for Arsenal, and one imagines it would be out of Newcastle's range as well."
"Guler has shown himself to be an elite young talent in recent times, and he's overcome some early issues in Madrid to become more of a regular starter this season under new manager Xabi Alonso. As much as anything else, it also seems like there isn't really any reason for Guler to look to leave the Spanish capital right now. Alonso seems to have found more of a role for him, and he should become more and more important."
Real Madrid are prepared to demand as much as €150m to sell Arda Guler, a valuation that would likely be unaffordable for clubs such as Arsenal and Newcastle. The 20-year-old has emerged as an elite young talent and has overcome early adaptation issues to become more of a regular starter under manager Xabi Alonso. Financial Fair Play constraints make a large single-player outlay unlikely for many suitors. The departure of Luka Modric should create a larger creative role for Guler at Madrid. Unless his form declines significantly, the club appears reluctant to sanction his sale for anything less than a very high fee.
