Manchester United willing to move for Real Madrid midfielder if exit is sanctioned
Real Madrid midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni may well have an offer to leave the club this summer, if Los Blancos open the door to a move for him. The French midfielder has been a regular for both Xabi Alonso and Alvaro Arbeloa this summer.
Tchouameni, 26, has been a starter for the majority of his Real Madrid career, taking over from Casemiro as their deepest midfielder after the Brazilian’s departure to Manchester United. Following an €80m move in 2022 from AS Monaco, Tchouameni has underwhelmed at points in his four years at the club, but this season has been one of their most consistent players.
Manchester United monitoring Tchouameni developments
With Casemiro to leave Old Trafford this summer, The Telegraph report that Tchouameni is on Manchester United’s shortlist this summer to replace him. Their feeling is that if Real Madrid do go ahead and sign a midfielder, it could nudge them to consider offers for Tchouameni. He is an alternative to Elliott Anderson, who is their top target, but Nottingham Forest have placed a €115m price tag on his head.
