In a statement published on their official website this Saturday, Real Madrid announced that their new signing, Arda Güler, has suffered a knee injury to his right knee. This is bad news for the young Turkish talent who was hoping to make his debut with his new team in the United States.
“After tests carried out on our player Arda Güler, he has been diagnosed with an injury to the internal meniscus of his right knee. The player will travel to Madrid in the next few hours to undergo specific treatment,” the publication from the Merengue club states.
It’s a major setback for the former Fenerbahçe player. Despite already impressing everyone in Madrid, he will now have to stay away from the field for some time. This situation will delay his highly anticipated debut in his new colors.
As a reminder, Real Madrid secured the signing of Arda Güler during the current summer transfer window. The young Turkish talent left Fenerbahçe for the Spanish capital for a fee of 20 million euros. It was a significant achievement for the Merengue club, particularly since they managed to outmaneuver their historic rival, FC Barcelona, to complete the deal.
