Xabi Alonso will complicate Arda Güler's career at Real Madrid.

Xabi Alonso has made history by becoming the unbeaten champion with Bayer Leverkusen in the German Bundesliga, marking a first in the club's history. While the Spanish coach is expected to leave the team at the end of the season, he has been seriously linked with Real Madrid, the club he previously played for. Additionally, the name that Alonso is rumored to bring along could put our national star Arda Güler in a difficult position.

WILL TAKE WIRTZ WITH HIM

According to a report from Fichajes, the Bayer Leverkusen coach wants to take German young star Florian Wirtz with him if he leaves at the end of the season.

COULD BE THE MOST EXPENSIVE TRANSFER

On the other hand, it is reported that Bayer Leverkusen will not easily let Wirtz go, and they are said to want to earn at least 100 million euros from this transfer. However, despite all this, Real Madrid, under the presidency of Florentino Perez, is showing interest in the German footballer, who could be one of the most expensive transfers in the club's history. The most expensive transfer for the purple-whites was Eden Hazard, who was brought in from Chelsea for 120.8 million euros in the 2019-2020 season.

HAS ARDA GÜLER BEEN DISCARDED?

Florian Wirtz, who is expected to join Real Madrid as the most expensive transfer in the club's history, can play as a number 10 and on the wings like Arda Güler, raising questions about whether the national player will "leave the team?" and "has he been discarded?" The Spanish press frequently mentions that Arda is unhappy due to limited playing time and may leave the team.

WIRTZ'S SEASON PERFORMANCE

Florian Wirtz, who started the 2024-2025 season well with Bayer Leverkusen, has played 12 matches with his team. The German star has scored 7 goals and provided 2 assists in these matches. The 21-year-old footballer, whose market value is 130 million euros, has a contract with the German team until 2027.
