Guler scores first goal for Real Madrid Moved to Spanish capital last summer Becomes youngest Turkish scorer in La LigaWHAT HAPPENED?
Guler made a sensational move to the Spanish capital from Fenerbahce in the summer of 2023, with Real reportedly beating Barcelona to his signature. The highly rated youngster has struggled through the start of his career with the Los Blancos as he has found it difficult to break into Carlo Ancelotti's side and has also suffered through multiple injury issues. He will feel relived to have finally got off the mark, and managed to do so in style, calmly rounding the goalkeeper after being played through before finishing calmly to round off a 4-0 win for Real over Celta.
