According to recent reports, there have been talks of Real Madrid potentially selling Aurelien Tchouameni, their talented midfielder. It is said that Liverpool has expressed interest in acquiring the French player. Tchouameni has been with Madrid for three seasons now, having joined from Monaco in a lucrative €100 million deal back in June 2022. During his time with the club, the 24-year-old has made 104 appearances and contributed to seven major trophies, including a La Liga and Champions League win last season. Despite his achievements, Tchouameni has been facing criticism for his performance this season and was even jeered by Madrid fans during their 3-1 loss to AC Milan in the Champions League on Tuesday.
According to Sacha Tavolieri, Madrid is willing to part ways with Tchouameni and Liverpool has already reached out to the midfielder's representatives to gauge his interest in a potential move to Anfield. Meanwhile, Madrid has reportedly set their sights on Manchester City's Rodri as their top choice to replace Tchouameni in the midfield. The Spanish club is said to be looking for a fee of €60 million for the transfer. They have also considered Chelsea's Enzo Fernandez, who they signed for a whopping £106.8 million from Benfica last year, as a potential option.
Unfortunately, Tchouameni suffered an ankle injury during Madrid's defeat to Milan on Tuesday and is expected to miss their upcoming match against Liverpool in the Champions League later this month. In other news, it has been reported that Madrid is actively searching for a new right-back in the January transfer window after their recent losses to Barcelona and Milan. Their primary target is Liverpool's Trent Alexander-Arnold, whose contract is set to expire at the end of the season. Madrid has been forced to use attacking winger Lucas Vazquez as a makeshift right-back due to Dani Carvajal's knee injury, which has ruled him out for the remainder of the season. With the team in need of reinforcement, it seems they are determined to secure Alexander-Arnold's services.
