  3. If you asked any Barcelona player before they went to Barcelona who they want to play for. They all would choose Real Madrid over Barcelona. We have always been the better club. They did have their era but it’s all tarnished because of referee scandal

  4. He didn’t specify Barcelona at all in the interview. He said “I left the summer interest up to my dad so that I could focus on football.” The interviewer interjects with “there was a mountain of interest. Everyone wanted you, Milan, Manchester, Barcelona, Paris” and he again replies with leaving out all other names “well I was focusing on football and not looking at it. It was after a national game that they told me Madrid was interested. You don’t say no to that so I went to meet with them. It was my childhood dream. I still can’t believe I’m here”.

    I think he’s avoiding naming other clubs as a sign of respect so that the media won’t create headlines like “Guler snubs Barca when Madrid came knocking”. Yet here we are.

    He also adds that Carlo made him promise to meet with him and even gave him dates to be where he needs to be. Then Carlo presented him with a long but sturdy plan and that they are interested in him taking over from Modric (eventually). He says “how do you even respond to that”.

    Elsewhere in the interview he speaks about training and playing with the guys he was searching YouTube for a few months ago.

  5. A rushed and brain dead move tbh. He clearly needed to develop more in a less intense club, going from a top 4 Turkish club to the best club in the world is like transferring from an associate’s degree from a local community college to a 4 years honour degree from Harvard. He will be sold or loaned out by next season, 100% guaranteed.

  6. I didn’t know who he was until the help of a few Barca Youtube sites. They did a great job 🤣😂
