Toni Kroos’s impact on Real Madrid remains evident despite his departure, with the former German international recently naming a surprising candidate as a potential successor in the royal midfield. This player, who has been gaining attention at the Santiago Bernabéu in recent weeks, could be the key to rejuvenating the midfield and continuing the legacy of the iconic German.
The surprise lies in the fact that this young talent is not a new signing, but a Turkish star already at the club, wearing the number 15 shirt, who possesses all the attributes needed to become one of Real Madrid’s most important players in the coming years. Arda Güler, who was not given a full opportunity under coach Carlo Ancelotti, continues to prove his worth under the guidance of Xabi Alonso.
