Guler scored twice before the break, to set Real Madrid on course for an assumed victory, and Ancelotti is confident the Turkish international is ready for a key role next season.

“Arda Guler is special. The closer to the goal, the better he is. He’s very effective, he scores with little space, he’s a special talent”, as per quotes from Diario AS.

Guler is expected to start in Real Madrid’s final league game of the season, at home to Real Betis next weekend, but he will be benched against Dortmund.
