📢luka Modric made an unexpected explanation after Real Madrid’s defeat in PSG and targeted Xabi Alonso: “Arda Güler insulted too much, and it reduced her exhausted”. Arda Güler himself spoke right after!
Real Madrid’s 2025 FIFA Clubs World Cup semifinals in the semifinals of Paris Saint-Germain’e after a 4-0 overwhelming defeat after the striking developments, Croatian legend and Real Madrid’s former captain Luka Modric, coach Xabi Alonso’ya bold explanation of the headlines. 39 -year -old midfielder who defeated the club in the club, Alonso’nun management, especially the young star Arda Guler’e did not refrain from criticizing his intense addiction. Modric’s comments created a shock effect in the football world, and Güler himself quickly responded to the allegations, and further further exacerbated the already intense discourse about the club’s transition period.
The PSG match was the end of a period for Real Madrid when both Modric and Lucas Vasquez said goodbye to the club after years of services. The PSG’s leaving Real Madrid behind in every field and the fact that the cadre, which still tries to adapt to life -led life, revealed the weaknesses of the cadre, was a difficult pill to digest. Modric, one of the cornerstones of Real Madrid’s success for the last 13 years, expressed his disappointment after the match and focused on the performance of 20 -year -old Turkish star Arda Güler. Modric said, “Xabi made a lot of pressure on Arda,” Modric said. “An extraordinary talent was used excessively in this tournament. It was clearly seen to be exhausted in the field. This is neither unfair to him nor the team.”
Modric’s statements came to a period when Güler came to the forefront as a key name in Alonso’s renewed midfield. With Toni Kroos retired and Modric’s departure from the team, the young Turk was tasked with filling the gap left by the two best midfielder of the game. Under the direction of Alonso, Güler gathered bright moments by praising his vision, creativity and the ability to direct the game from deeper positions. The reports show that Güler has received the ninth minute in the Clubs World Cup. This is a significant increase compared to last season, when former coach Carlo Ancelotti had difficulty in finding a chance. Although Alonso’s decision to position Güler as a defender is praised as a tactical mastery move, Modric’s comments show that the busy workload may have negatively affected the young player.
The Croatian coach’s criticism arouses question marks about Alonso’s manager style used in the early days of Real Madrid. Alonso, who took over the task in June 2025, is appreciated for playing the squad by applying a system that promises hope in the previous matches, with a high -energy, focused system. The use of Güler with players such as Jude Bellingham and Federico Valverde is at the center of this approach. However, PSG’s 4-0 defeat revealed the cracks in the team’s structure, and Modric’s comments suggest that Alonso’s trust in young players may be early. The emotional weight of Modric’s separation, combined with harsh criticism, led to controversy as to whether Alonso’s team was instantly loaded to get any results.
However, Arda Güler immediately responded to Modric’s claims and presented a perspective that defends the coach and accepted the concerns of the experienced technical man. In his interview after the match, Güler said, ım I am grateful for Luke’s support. He made me a mental teacher. I feel strong and I want to play. The coach believes me and I am ready to take responsibility. ” he said. This response of Güler reveals his maturity and determination to evaluate Alonso’s opportunity. Sources close to the player said that he was “satisfied ve about Alonso’s approach and saw it as an opportunity to consolidate its place in the first 11.
The contradictory narratives between Modric’s warnings and Güler’s optimism draw a complex picture of Real Madrid’s current situation. While the club is in search of restructuring under the management of Alonso, the balance between feeding young talents and maintaining competitive advantage will be very important. The separation of Modric and Vazquez points to the end of a golden era in which the focus shifts to the new generation. Alonso’s ability to manage players like Güler and eliminating excessive efforts concerns will probably determine their term of office. For now, Modric’s words recall the challenges of Real Madrid, who stepped into a new era in which Güler has achieved their goals.
