Real Madrid starlet Arda Guler was disciplined by Carlo Ancelotti

Real Madrid starlet Arda Guler was embraced by his teammates with special vigour after his goal against Celta Vigo two weekends ago, and praised by Carlo Ancleotti following his near-wondergoal against Osasuna. Two moments that came after a tough period for Guler, where he showed his frustration, and there was talk of him leaving on loan.

Guler appeared frustrated with his lack of game time a few weeks ago, but there was a definite change of tone from Ancelotti regarding him. He admitted publicly that his need for game time clashed with the demands of the team, while reports emerged that Ancelotti did not see him as ready for competition as his teammates.

As per Relevo, that was down to one or two incidents of indiscipline. Seemingly the teenager was caught out, having gone out late into the night, when he was supposed to be resting. While his camp put it down to a common part of the life of a young player, the staff did not appreciate it, feeling that it was not the time of the season for distractions. One or two of his colleagues spoke to Guler about his use of free time, as did the staff. The latter felt it was an act of rebellion against his lack of game time.
