Arda Güler has been linked with a move to the Premier League in recent months.
Liverpool are said to be monitoring his situation and could make a move to sign him in the summer. According to a report from Fichajes, Liverpool could bring in Xabi Alonso as manager at the end of the season, with the Spaniard keen to sign the Turkish playmaker.

It will be interesting to see whether Liverpool are interested in signing the player. The 20-year-old is a great talent with a bright future and has all the ingredients to become a star. He can play centrally or on the flanks. He will add goals and creativity to Liverpool’s attack.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid are expected to demand €90 million for the Turkish international, but it remains to be seen whether Liverpool are prepared to pay that price. That’s a lot of money for a young player and Liverpool need to improve in other areas of their squad as well.
There is no doubt that Guler is a promising young player and may ultimately justify the investment in the long run. But Liverpool must first prioritize the areas that need strengthening. They should consider investing in quality central defenders, defensive midfielders and wingers.
They have players like Florian Wirtz and Alexis Mac Allister who can act as attacking midfielders and create chances for their teammates in the final third. There is no doubt that Guler is a talented player, but he is not a priority for Liverpool.
That said, he has three goals and 12 assists in all competitions this season.
