Manchester City have made contact with Real Madrid to sign Arda Guler. City have earmarked Guler as a successor to Kevin De Bruyne, who appears unlikely to sign a contract extension. Arsenal also have the attacking midfielder on their radar, but City will provide competition for him.

Arda Güler, a 19-year-old Turkish player currently at Real Madrid, is considered a top candidate for Manchester City as a replacement for Kevin De Bruyne. However, securing Güler may be challenging as Real Madrid has strong faith in him despite his limited playing time.

Manchester City is keeping an eye on Arda Güler as a potential solution to the possible departure of Kevin de Bruyne. The club considers Güler's youth and potential as a long-term investment that could ensure quality in the midfield for several years.

Pep Guardiola needs Arda Güler to fulfill his biggest wish. Manchester City's interest is partly due to the potential loss of Julian Alvarez.
