Real Madrid star Arda Güler leading Europe’s top-5 leagues in one category

A head-turning statistic, putting into context the impressive nature of Real Madrid starlet Arda Güler’s recent goalscoring form, has come to the fore on Friday.

Midfielder Güler has for his part of course enjoyed a major uptick in game-time in Spain’s capital of late.

With the La Liga title now wrapped up, Carlo Ancelotti has deemed the time as right to unleash his prodigiously talented summer signing on Spanish football.

And, safe to say, that Güler has gone on to repay the faith of his manager, and then some…

All told, the 19-year-old has found the net in four of his last six appearances, including both of his last two.

Most recently, Güler slotted home another fine left-footed finish on Tuesday night, during a half-hour cameo against Alavés.

And, in the process, the former Fenerbahçe man maintained his place atop a noteworthy list.

As revealed by statisticians Opta, amongst players to have managed at least three goals in Europe’s top-5 leagues this season, Güler boasts the best minutes per goal ratio, at just 70.7.
