Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti says Arda Guler is close to making his debut.

The youngster is yet to make feature for Real due to two injury setbacks since his summer arrival from Fenerbahce.

Ancelotti said, “Arda has been doing pretty well. He lacks a bit of fitness, but he'll get his chance. I think he'll be ready in 10 or 15 days. He's an attacking player and can play in every position. He's not a centre forward. He's a number 10 because of his characteristics, but he can also play out wide. He can play in other positions.

“Everyone spends a lot of time talking about Arda because he's so young. He has all the time in the world to succeed here.

"He's almost ready and prepared to do well."
