"The Türkiye international began the season looking like a key player in Xabi Alonso's midfield. Part of the rationale behind Madrid's decision not to move for Martín Zubimendi was a belief in Güler's ability to develop in central midfield. But his involvement, and form, has diminished in recent months, and it's not yet clear what role he will play under new coach Álvaro Arbeloa, although he started Wednesday's Copa del Rey defeat at Albacete."
"Manchester City want a center back with John Stones, Josko Gvardiol and Rúben Dias all out injured. Guéhi is viewed as a long-term target who could be brought in earlier under the right circumstances. City don't believe there would be much of an issue in finding a fee which is acceptable to Crystal Palace given they are set to lose the England international for nothing when his contract expires this summer."
European winter transfer window is open and several clubs are assessing short-term and long-term needs. Arsenal pursued long-term planning after a £250 million summer investment and are keen on 20-year-old Elche midfielder Rodrigo Mendoza; Güler is another young target. Güler began the season strongly in Xabi Alonso's midfield, but his involvement and form have diminished and his role under new coach Álvaro Arbeloa is unclear. Arsenal have no plans for significant winter activity unless a late opportunity emerges. Manchester City want a centre back due to injuries to Stones, Gvardiol and Dias and view Marc Guéhi as a long-term target, but City face the difficulty of persuading Guéhi, who can choose among clubs and expect an improved financial package.
