Aurelien Tchouameni: How United could benefit from mess at Real Madrid

The report states: “Sources with knowledge of the situation, speaking anonymously as they are not authorised to do so publicly, said the fight started at the end of training and carried on in the changing rooms on Wednesday.”

This is not an isolated case, with tensions between several superstars and dressing room politics preventing Real from building any momentum on the pitch. A major clear-out appears to be the need of the hour in the Spanish capital, and this is where United could benefit.

Manchester United eyeing Real Madrid’s Aurelien Tchouameni

In recent weeks, it has emerged that United view Tchouameni as one of their preferred midfield targets to replace Casemiro.

United will struggle to find a more suitable option than the Frenchman to fill the departing Brazilian’s void, given he has already shown he is capable of doing that at Real after joining them from AS Monaco the same summer Casemiro moved to Old Trafford.

Despite Real’s struggles, the 26-year-old has been in good form and remains one of the best defensive midfielders in Europe.

The 6ft 2in tall star’s physical prowess, combined with his positional and tactical nous, aligns seamlessly with United’s brief of finding a midfielder whose skill set complements Kobbie Mainoo.

The France international has everything in his locker to become the signing of the summer.

Recently, The Peoples Person relayed a report claiming the La Liga giants value Tchouameni at around £70 million, a relatively easy hurdle to overcome for INEOS.

Now, following the bizarre development in Madrid, United will only be emboldened in their pursuit of convincing the Champions League-winning midfielder to follow in Casemiro’s footsteps and make a fresh start in a more stable environment.
