Real Madrid stance on Aurelien Tchouameni and Fede Valverde sales amid Arsenal interest

Real Madrid were rocked earlier this week when Aurelien Tchouameni and Fede Valverde came to blows after Thursday’s training session, with the incident leaving the latter hospitalised with a head injury. Both players have since been fined following an internal investigation, although the story may not end there.

In the immediate aftermath of the incident, Real Madrid were furious – to the point where selling Tchouameni and/or Valverde was considered a possibility. Understandably, that caught the attention of clubs across Europe, and one of those is Arsenal, with TEAMtalk reporting that the Champions League finalists are interested in signing both players.

However, the report goes on to say that Real Madrid have quickly made it clear that neither Tchouameni nor Valverde will be sold this summer. The handing out of the fines, coupled with the pair having already resolved their differences, means that the matter is considered closed, and thus far, there will no further punishment handed out.

Tchouameni and Valverde have been two of Real Madrid’s best performers this season, in what has been a very disappointing campaign for the club. Failure to win El Clasico on Sunday would officially hand the La Liga title to , who are 11 points clear at the top of the table with four matches to play.
