Liverpool wants to sign Arda Guler from Real Madrid

Reports from Spanish transfer outlet Fichajes suggest that Liverpool have now entered the race to sign Real Madrid’s talented Turkish midfielder Arda Guler ahead of the summer transfer window.

The links come amid speculation around the future of LIVERPOOL’s midfield and managerial uncertainty at Anfield, with some outlets even tying potential new coach Xabi Alonso to the club and reportedly keen on bringing Guler in as a cornerstone of his project.

Guler, 20, arrived at Real Madrid in 2023 with a reputation as one of Europe’s brightest young playmakers but has experienced fluctuating game time this season. While he has showcased creativity and attacking intelligence — contributing key goals and assists — he has not always been a guaranteed starter under his current setup in Spain.

From Liverpool’s perspective, Guler fits several strategic needs. His ability to operate as a central attacking midfielder, a No. 10 or wide creative outlet provides tactical flexibility that could complement star performers like Dominik Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Allister. Multiple sources have noted that Liverpool’s midfield options at times lack consistent inventiveness — an issue Guler could help address.

For Guler himself, a switch to the Premier League and specifically to Liverpool would offer a platform for growth that blends elite competition with regular responsibility.

Anfield’s raucous atmosphere and high-tempo football could accelerate his development, making him a more complete and resilient attacking threat. In addition, working under a coach reportedly eager to build around him — rather than as a rotational option — can help unlock Guler’s potential and raise his profile on the global stage.

Real Madrid, however, are unlikely to make the deal straightforward. The Spanish giants reportedly value Guler highly and have previously resisted offers, emphasizing his long-term role in their squad. Moreover, his contract runs well into the latter part of the decade, giving Los Blancos leverage in negotiations.

Still, if LIVERPOOL can present a convincing sporting project — and match Madrid’s financial expectations — this summer could see one of the brightest young talents in European football take on a new chapter at Anfield, blending creative flair with Premier League intensity.
