This week, Arda Guler, a defender for Real Madrid, went back to training in preparation for his first game with the first team.

According to SPORT, the 18-year-old has returned to first-team training with his new team Real Madrid after missing time with an injury since moving there from Fenerbahce for £17 million ($21 million) in the summer.

The Turkish player has been hurt since joining Carlo Ancelotti’s team, hurting his meniscus and muscles. He was taken out of their pre-season group because of this, and he hasn’t played for Real Madrid yet.

 In order to get ready for his return, the player was practicing away from the rest of the team. As soon as Guler is ready to play again after several problems with injuries, he will probably start working with the ball.
