More Real Madrid turmoil as Valverde and Tchouameni clash in training bust-up

Real Madrid midfielders Federico Valverde and Aurelien Tchouameni reportedly had to be separated during a furious confrontation at training.

According to Marca, tensions boiled over at Valdebebas when the pair got into a heated argument after a challenge during an intense session.

The disagreement quickly escalated, with both players allegedly pushing one another, prompting teammates and staff to intervene and prevent the situation from turning physical.

The altercation continued into the dressing room, underlining the growing frustration and division inside Alvaro Arbeloa’s squad during the closing weeks of a disastrous campaign.

Real Madrid’s dressing room is deeply fractured after a season in which the club have failed to win any major trophies despite a promising start.

Marca states that relationships among several players have deteriorated badly, with some squad members barely speaking to each other due to mounting pressure and exhaustion.

The atmosphere around the club has also reportedly been made worse by internal tensions involving coaching staff.

Marca claim that several players have become increasingly frustrated behind the scenes as the mood at Valdebebas continues to sour.

The Valverde-Tchouameni incident is the latest flashpoint in an increasingly combustible environment at Real Madrid.

Earlier this week, Antonio Rudiger and new signing Alvaro Carreras were also involved in a confrontation, although the matter was publicly dismissed as minor by those involved.
