Carlo Ancelotti has maintained that Arda Guler is still in his plans.
The Turkish midfielder struggled for minutes this campaign, which has led Arsenal and Napoli to develop interest in him.
But Ancelotti said yesterday: “When the team plays well, it is because everyone contributes. Arda has contributed a lot when it comes to creativity in the final third, he gets close to scoring, he has a complete game.
“These are players that we can trust right now because the demands on the matches are very high.
“We need everyone going forward.”
