In the summer of 2011, Sahin came to Madrid from Borussia Dortmund to the Bundesliga player of the status of 2010/2011. But, he arrived at the Santiago Bernabeu in conditions of injury and had to wait quite a while before diving debut.
After recovering, Sahin failed to appear impressive. As a result, players who defend the Turkish national team was more often on the bench for Los Blancos than the action on the field.
After having a dismal season in Madrid, the club changed Sahin. Madrid loaned to Premier League club Liverpool.
With the Reds, Sahin again failed to shine. 24-year-old midfielder was only briefly in England as he moved clubs again. In the January transfer window, he returned to Borussia Dortmund with a loan period of 18 months.
When asked about their performance so degenerate in Madrid and Liverpool, Sahin said that he could not find happiness in the two club.
"I can only play 100 percent if I'm happy., And certainly it's not how I feel at Real Madrid and Liverpoool," Sahin told the Ruhr Nachrichten I cited Football Espana.
"So that's why I returned to Dortmund," he added.
"I think things would be different at Real Madrid when I was not injured. But, that's my destiny," says Sahin.
