Big Boost for Morocco as Arda Güler Set to Be Fit for 2026 World Cup
Arda Güler is expected to be fit in time for the 2026 FIFA World Cup despite suffering a significant injury that will sideline him for the rest of the club season.
The young Real Madrid midfielder picked up a hamstring issue during the final training session ahead of their clash with Real Betis. The setback has now ruled him out of all remaining matches this season.
In an official statement, Real Madrid confirmed that Güler sustained a muscle injury in the biceps femoris of his right leg following medical examinations carried out by the club’s staff. While no exact recovery timeline was provided, the club noted that his progress will be closely monitored.
Further reports from Diario Marca indicate that although the injury ends his current campaign, there is optimism that he will recover in time to feature on football’s biggest stage in 2026.
