The growing instability inside Real Madrid has created another major problem for the club, and this time it involves one of the team’s captains.
According to a recent revelation from Ramon Alvarez de Mon, several influential figures inside the Real Madrid dressing room are now asking the club to seriously consider selling Federico Valverde this summer.
The situation is viewed as extremely sensitive, given Valverde’s importance to the club over the years and the respect he has built at the Santiago Bernabeu.
However, recent events appear to have significantly damaged his standing within parts of the dressing room.
Valverde has found himself at the centre of controversy following his falling out with Aurelien Tchouameni, an incident that continues to cast a shadow over the final weeks of the season.
The tension between the two players escalated to the point where Valverde was unavailable for the recent El Clasico defeat against Barcelona.
What initially appeared to be a private internal issue has now become a much bigger concern inside the squad.

According to the report, the situation has left such a strong impression on certain senior figures within the dressing room that some are now open to the idea of Valverde leaving the club altogether.
The last few weeks have become one of the hardest moments of Valverde’s professional career.
The midfielder is currently sidelined for between 10 and 14 days after suffering a head injury, meaning he will watch the final stretch of Real Madrid’s season from the sidelines.
As such, there is said to be significant regret on the player’s side regarding the entire situation, but what makes the situation even more surprising is Valverde’s status within the squad.
The Uruguayan has been one of the club captains this season and has long been viewed as one of the leaders of Real Madrid’s current generation.
Now, however, questions are beginning to emerge about his long-term future at the club.
With Florentino Perez already preparing major structural changes after a disappointing campaign, Valverde’s situation could become one of the most delicate issues the club must manage this summer.
