A crisis claim regarding national football player Arda Güler at Real Madrid has come to the fore. It has been suggested that after being substituted in the Champions League match against Benfica, Arda Güler reacted to head coach Alvaro Arbeloa, and as a result, his ties with the technical team have been seriously damaged.
TENSION IN THE LOCKER ROOM IS RISING
According to reports in the Spanish press, the atmosphere in the Real Madrid locker room is increasingly tense. It is stated that there is a perception within the club that head coach Alvaro Arbeloa has acted unfairly in terms of playing time and role distribution. The constant favoritism towards certain players is causing discomfort among others.
PERCEPTION OF "PRIORITY TO MBAPPE, VINICIUS, AND BELLINGHAM"
In internal evaluations within the club, it is expressed that the perception that Arbeloa is focused on pleasing Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Junior, and Jude Bellingham, while the remaining players are left in the background, is gaining strength.
CLAIM THAT TIES WITH THE TECHNICAL TEAM HAVE BROKEN
It is reported that one of the central figures in this situation is Arda Güler. The report in El Nacional emphasizes that despite the young player's effort and professional attitude, he feels he has not received sufficient playing time and trust. It is suggested that Arda Güler believes that no matter what performance he shows, the preferences of the coaching staff do not change, and this situation has tested his patience.
SUPPORT GIVEN TO BELLINGHAM DRAWS REACTION
According to the claim, Arda Güler finds it hard to understand why unconditional support is given to Jude Bellingham while other players are sidelined without the luxury of making mistakes. It is stated that this situation further increases the young footballer's disappointment.
ARDA GÜLER IS NOT ALONE
It is noted that there are other players in the locker room who share Arda Güler's discomfort. It is discussed that the privileges granted to certain stars, regardless of performance, are creating unrest among young and ambitious players, and if this imbalance is not corrected, the crisis could escalate.
