On Tuesday, it was reported that Arda Guler had chosen to join Real Madrid this summer, ending Barcelona’s hopes to signing the Turkish sensation.
Guler had been heavily linked with a move to Catalonia, but he now looks set to head to the Spanish capital instead. However, there are still details to be sorted out before a deal can be agreed, despite Guler having agreed personal teams.
As reported by Fabrizio Romano, Real Madrid have submitted a new bid to Fenerbahce, believed to be in the region of €20m, which they believe will be accepted in the next couple of days.

Once a fee is agreed, Guler is expected to fly to Madrid in order to finalise the deal, which Diario AS could be completed as early as this week.
Guler will become Real Madrid’s fifth summer signing, and he will be a valuable player for both the present and future. There is little doubt that they are close to signing someone that many people believe will be a superstar.
