Real Madrid Starboy Found no Trace in the Golden Boy Nominees of 2024

Real Madrid

This year’s Golden Boy list has made a huge statement about Barcelona’s young academies and their prodigies. La Masia has made everyone clear with the “best talents” and the productions of the young generational footballers to grow up and compete with the best leagues and clubs.

Unfortunately, Real Madrid’s young talents are nowhere to be seen in the list. However, the Turkish sensation named Arda Guler is making an outstanding footmark in Real Madrid by dazzling and fainting the opponent’s defense didn’t make it into the Golden Boy list.

His year of total domination among the top youngsters won’t go to waste. His sense of mature style of football has even toppled some of the old footballers as well. On the other hand, his rival Lamine Yamal has toppled the list into the first spot.

Arda Guler’s Footmark for Real Madrid

The 19-year-old Turkish magnifico completed his Real Madrid transfer from Fenerbahce on 6th July 2023 for 20 million euros. His outstanding performance determines how crucial he will be for Real Madrid. He has scored six goals for the club.

Although, the main part that makes it even more interesting is that he has the perfect goal-scoring ratio where he scored six goals out of six shots. The last Real Madrid’s Golden Boy winner was Jude Bellingham who will be leading the competition. Although Guler saves his spot in the 78th position for the Golden Boy Award.

This outrageous reaction must feel like a low blow for Real Madrid fans, as their rival’s player is at the top although the efforts were from both sides. The fact that makes it even more unreal is Real Madrid doesn’t depend on their youth players, whereas it’s the opposite for Barcelona. Barcelona’s fate is written by La Masia.

Guler vs Yamal

The battle between Arda Guler and Yamal won’t be just a regular rivalry, it will carry the mantle of their great legendary players like Ronaldo vs Messi, and Zidane vs Ronaldinho. The two of the generational youngsters will compete for more as they expose themselves to more mature situations.

There has been a certain debate about the rivalry between two of the generational peaks. Arda Guler has an immediate impact on the club as he took less time scoring six goals while he is just 19. Yamal, on the other hand, has scored seven goals and seven assists in 58 matches for Barcelona.

Guler has played much fewer games than Yamal to close out the competition. However, Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti believes there is so much to watch and learn for Guler. He even thought of benching out Guler for more games and making him patient so he would train harder and harder to make his spot.

Guler’s idol Mesut Ozil also had some words about him going to the best club in the world at the time of his transfer to Real Madrid. He even said “A name occurs to me… I have a brother I believe in. I hope that God protects him from the evil eye: he is Arda Guler.” 

What’s Next for Arda Guler

As Real Madrid’s squad buildup is in an insane amount of star players, there will be few compromises from the club and their players. The addition of Mbappe and Endrick to the club may make some changes for the club. A few players may also have to leave the club.

Therefore, there have been certain rumors for Arda Guler to leave the club, but there are changes in the decisions by Ancelotti to retain Guler. Somewhere there might be a sign for Guler to continue or to leave.
