AC Milan are ready to pay the release clause of Arda Guler and secure an attacking midfielder that is considered a generational talent.
While waiting for the record sale of around 80 million euros, including bonuses, of Sandro Tonali to Newcastle to materialize, AC Milan are trying to close the first signings of the summer transfer window. There are many names on Geoffrey Moncada‘s list of targets, but there is one name name that both the AC Milan head scout and RedBird consider to be a generational talent. Someone that can guide the Rossoneri for many years to come.
We are talking about Arda Guler, the extremely talented Turkish attacking midfielder of Fenerbahce. After his very early debut in the first team and in the senior national team, the 18-year-old has attracted the attention of half Europe, Barcelona and Real Madrid included. Despite his young age, Guler plays with the flair and tranquility of a veteran player.
In his first full season at Fenerbahce, Arda Guler made 35 appearances scoring 6 goals and providing 7 assists. Excellent numbers for a 2005-born player. The young attacking midfielder is one of the most technically gifted midfielders to emerge in Turkey for years and is already a star name at one of the biggest clubs in the Super Lig. He cites Bruno Fernandes, Kevin De Bruyne and Mesut Ozil as his influences and the latter last year described Arda as the “the future Number 10”.
Moncada has been following Guler for a long time and has asked AC Milan to sign him at all costs. The the Rossoneri had scout is fully convinced that who signs Guler has signed a soon to be world beater. The competition for his services is tough. The midfielder that also player as a right winger has a release clause of €17.5 million. A barraging taking into account the Arda’s value.
