Napoli and Belgium star Kevin De Bruyne has on Thursday moved to reveal his appreciation for the talents of Real Madrid starlet Arda Güler.
This comes fresh off the pair locking horns on the international front, in a Nations League clash between Türkiye and Belgium.
When all was said and done on the evening, it was the latter who secured all three points, courtesy of a comeback 2-1 triumph at The Gürsel Aksel Stadium.
But it was youngster Arda who, in defeat, proved himself the star of the show.
Continuing what has been a spectacular opening to the new campaign, the 21-year-old took the game by the scruff of the neck, proving himself Türkiye’s leading source of inspiration, and netting a stunning free-kick to open the scoring.
Speaking to the media post-match, Kevin De Bruyne was therefore drawn on the name of his fellow midfielder. And the 35-year-old made use of the opportunity to absolutely lavish praise on Arda:
”Arda Güler is amazing. I think his teammates should take more responsibility because all of the responsibility is on him. They should help him.
”We based our plan on Arda. He is one of the best players in the world.”
