It’s easy to go viral when you’re a Real Madrid player, and you have a habit of making the ball obey you. But the first appearance in an actual game will have to wait. The former Fenerbahce boy has had injury woes in the past week or so, and it’s gotten even worse.Arda intensified his running in the past few days as Carlo Ancelotti’s team prepared for the big test against Barcelona. But everything went to ruin on Saturday after Real Madrid confirmed Guller had a meniscus injury and would have to fly back to Spain.##NAJAVA_MECA_7398914##Ancelotti was patient with Guler, careful not to put too much strain on the youngster during his period of adjusting to life at Real Madrid. Los Blancos’ staff devised a training schedule that would increase Guler’s strength without reducing his pace – something they’d succeeded with Rodrygo. It started well, but the club had to admit that Guler’s body couldn’t take the strain. The Turkish international felt discomfort in his right knee and has flown back to Madrid.Real Madrid’s medical staff did not reveal how long Guler would be out, nor have they given many details on the injury.
