Ancelotti Cautious with Arda Guler Despite Real Madrid’s 3-0 Win Over Braga

Real Madrid secured a convincing 3-0 victory over Braga in the Champions League, but Carlo Ancelotti opted not to bring on Arda Guler despite the comfortable lead. Ancelotti explained his decision, emphasizing caution with the young talent.

“We are being very careful with him. He only completed 4 trainings with the team after a serious injury. He will have his chance when he will be 100% ready,” Ancelotti stated.

While Guler was previously reported as fully fit after training with the squad, Ancelotti’s recent comments suggest that the teenager is not yet considered 100% ready for match action. Guler has been on the bench for two consecutive matches, including the 0-0 draw against Rayo Vallecano last week. Ancelotti’s cautious approach highlights the importance of ensuring Guler’s full fitness and readiness before introducing him to competitive play.
