Marc Cucurella has revealed his choice for the best Real Madrid player, and it is neither Kylian Mbappé nor Jude Bellingham. Speaking on COPE, the full-back singled out a teammate he believes does not receive the recognition he deserves: Arda Güler.

"I'll tell you one who goes unnoticed, and that's Arda Güler," said the defender, who joined Real Madrid this summer as one of the first signings of the José Mourinho era.

Cucurella continued his praise of the Turkish midfielder: "When he plays, we play differently. He has that baby face, but he plays a lot and has a lot of quality."

His comments highlight the importance Güler has gained within the dressing room and Mourinho's tactical system, where he has become the team's main creative force.

The coach has given the 21-year-old considerable freedom to move around the pitch, asking his teammates to cover the spaces he leaves behind. Güler has responded with important contributions, scoring against Valencia at Mestalla and providing the assist for Bellingham's 50th goal at El Sardinero.
