Carlo Ancelotti doubts that the Real Madrid young talent is as prepared to compete as their teammates.

Carlo Ancelotti, currently in Turkey, is growing weary of the persistent discussions surrounding 18-year-old Arda Guler. Despite the excitement among supporters eager to witness Guler’s talents on display, his limited involvement may be causing confusion among fans. Despite Ancelotti’s calls for patience regarding the young player, signs indicate that Guler’s own patience may be waning.

A recent incident on Sunday heightened expectations that Guler might finally see some game time against Sevilla. However, these hopes were dashed when Luka Modric scored, relegating Guler to the bench. Ancelotti’s handling of the situation made it clear that he wasn’t inclined to accommodate Guler’s aspirations. Despite Guler’s recovery from a series of injuries suffered in the latter part of the previous year, his playing time has been scant, totaling only 92 minutes over nearly two months, despite being fit for the entirety of that period.

According to sources, Ancelotti holds the view that Guler is not yet equipped to compete at the same level as his teammates. The initial excitement surrounding Guler seems to have faded, despite Ancelotti’s earlier praise for the young talent. These recent developments come amid rumors suggesting Guler’s potential pursuit of a loan transfer next summer to secure more playing opportunities.
