Arda Guler Thriving Under Xabi Alonso at Real Madrid

Real Madrid’s midfielder Arda Guler is relishing his current season with coach Xabi Alonso at the helm.

After facing limited opportunities under the previous manager, Carlo Ancelotti, the young Turkish player is now receiving significant trust and responsibility from the new coach.

Guler’s Confidence in Alonso

In a recent conversation with L’Equipe, Guler expressed his confidence in Alonso’s strategies, stating, “I am fully committed to Xabi Alonso’s vision. If he ever asks me to play as a goalkeeper, I would get gloves without hesitation!”

Chemistry with Kylian Mbappe

During the interview, Guler was also asked about his understanding with French star Kylian Mbappe.

He mentioned, “Our respective abilities complement one another perfectly.” He added, “We communicate well on the pitch; before games, we often discuss strategies, like ‘we should try this or that.’ At times, even a mere glance is sufficient to signal each other.”
