AC Milan are very keen on signing Arda Guler, the young attacking midfielder of Fenerbahce. However, there is fierce competition for the top talent who is 18 years old. In fact, several European clubs like his profile such as Real Madrid and FC Barcelona. It won't be easy for the Rossoneri to overcome these two clubs, but they seem to be the most active at the moment in the player's pursuit. They are even willing to mak a significant financial effort to bring him to Milanello.
According to reports from Fanatik in Turkey, Milan, who can take advantage of the large sum received from the sale of Sandro Tonali to Newcastle for a fee close to 80 million euros, have put forward an offer of 22 million euros, which is higher than the price set by the release clause (17.5 million euros). In addition to this amount, bonuses and a percentage of Guler's future resale value will also be added.
Currently, this is the highest offer, but the Spanish competition is strong, particularly from Real Madrid, whose offer is intriguing to Fenerbahçe. The Blancos are ready to pay the release clause (17.5 million euros) and leave the player on loan in Turkey for a year (The Turkish club is trying in every way to convince the player to stay for another season). On the other hand, Barcelona has a different strategy. Unlike their eternal rivals Real Madrid, they are reportedly ready to include the young Turkish attacking midfielder in their squad immediately. The final decision will, of course, be up to Guler, who will have to choose the project he believes is best for his development.
