Barcelona, Real Madrid, and AC Milan are the best-placed teams to sign 18-year-old Turkish wonderkid Arda Guler this summer.

According to Corriere dello Sport, as relayed by Pianeta Milan, the race to sign Arda Guler has boiled down to three clubs. AC Milan, Barcelona, and Real Madrid are the favourites to sign the 18-year-old wonderkid. And his suitors can sign the teenage sensation for just €17.5 million in the summer transfer window.

Arda Guler has become one of the most highly sought-after prospects in the world on the back of his breakthrough campaign. The Turkish prodigy became a regular for Fenerbahce this past season, nearly two years after his first-team debut. And at 18, coming off an impressive 2022/23, he has a bright future ahead of him.

The 18-year-old turned out 35 times across all competitions, chipping in with six goals and seven assists. And Guler’s progress has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several high-profile clubs. AC Milan, Barcelona, and Real Madrid are among his prospective suitors this summer. And the report by Corriere dello Sport suggests the three heavyweights are the favourites to land him.

AC Milan can do with an attacking midfielder following Brahim Diaz’s return to Real Madrid this summer. In addition, Sandro Tonali is on the verge of joining Newcastle United. So it behoves AC Milan to invest in a prodigious midfielder in the summer transfer window. And Arda Guler has emerged as a viable target for the Rossoneri.

As for Barcelona, Deco is reportedly making the effort to beat the competition to the 18-year-old wonderkid. And with Franck Kessie facing an uncertain future at Spotify Camp Nou, Barcelona can turn to Guler as a midfield reinforcement. But the Catalan giants face two obstacles in pursuing the teenager. Firstly, the youngster is dreaming about joining Real Madrid.

Secondly, Guler’s representatives are demanding a commission that exceeds his release clause of €17.5 million. But shelling out the big bucks should not be a problem for Real Madrid. And Los Blancos’ healthy financial situation leaves them better placed to beat Barcelona and AC Milan to his signature.

Meanwhile, several other clubs are also interested in securing Guler’s services this summer. But with AC Milan, Barcelona, and Real Madrid being the favourites to land his signature, those suitors have an uphill task to land him.
