Arda Güler's position has the potential to become one of the major transfer sagas of 2026, but whether it actually happens will depend on how far Liverpool and Manchester United are willing to push Real Madrid as well as how eager Güler is to leave the Bernabéu at this point in his development. The noise around United and Liverpool is real and growing, yet the current signals from Madrid and the player’s camp suggest that any blockbuster deal would be more “opportunity of the market” than inevitability. Where the Rumour Stands Now Reports in England and Spain indicate that Manchester United have already opened or accelerated “initial contacts” around a possible move for Arda Güler as part of long‑term recruitment planning. At the same time, Liverpool are being described as strong contenders or even frontrunners in some outlets, especially in the context of planning for life after a declining or departing Mohamed Salah.

Pep Guardiola admits that his performance as Manchester City manager has been "really poor" this season.
City have had one of their worst seasons in a decade and are still battling to qualify for the Champions League next season.
Despite their well-documented injury woes, City's manager believes he and his team might have performed better.
Guardiola was asked to describe the performance of himself and his coaches this season. The Catalan merely replied: "This season?" Very poor.
"Our opponents never handed us a red carpet when we won the crowns. My obligation was to handle the issue far better than I did.
When asked about the causes of the poor performance, he claimed to know: "A few things, the reason why it happened. Hopefully that will not happen again next season; this is critical."
The former Barcelona manager also promised fans that he remains enthused about his position and hopes to lead the club back to the top next season.
Despite their difficulties, City still has a chance to win silverware this season. Almost every other manager and team would be content with winning a trophy to make a season memorable.
However, given his legendary management record, Pep Guardiola cannot be satisfied with only one cup win. Despite the possibility of winning the FA Cup, he believes this season will be remembered as a failure.
The coach admitted: "I have said many times recently that it would be fantastic to make it to the FA Cup final and win. And to qualify for the Champions League.
"However, the season has been dismal. "It will not change."
Guardiola went on to say, "Our standards and many things were not excellent. This is the reality. It will not alter because we won one title.
City's manager has only once concluded a season without any silverware. He went on to say, "We will be happy, and of course, we want to win the FA Cup."
"However, if we qualify for the Champions League, we will all continue to behave as we have this season. Again, I said it's a tremendous success; winning the FA Cup is a huge success, but the season hasn't gone well."
The Catalan denies that his players, who have won so many titles in the past, are lacking in motivation. He declares, "I'm not saying they don't want it; they didn't want it. What I mean is that we weren't able."
