November 01, (THEWILL) – Real Madrid have reportedly insisted that they have no intention of allowing midfielder, Aurelien Tchouameni, to leave the club anytime soon. The 23-year-old French international has been linked with moves to both Arsenal and Liverpool recently, but Madrid consider him a key part of their long-term plans.
Sources monitored by THEWILL have confirmed that Madrid have rebuffed approaches from both Arsenal and Liverpool for Tchouameni. The Spanish giants regard the midfielder as a vital component of their team going forward and have told interested clubs that he is not for sale under any circumstances.
Tchouameni only joined Madrid last summer in a £68.7m deal from Monaco. Both manager Carlo Ancelotti and the club hierarchy are said to be delighted with how he has settled in Madrid and view him as part of their midfield for years to come.
There had been speculation that the arrival of the sensational Jude Bellingham this season could impact Tchouameni’s playing time along with Eduardo Camavinga. However, Ancelotti has seamlessly incorporated all three into his starting eleven through a tactical shift.
Madrid reportedly see their young midfield trio of Tchouameni, Bellingham and Camavinga as the backbone of the team moving forward. New contracts for Camavinga and Tchouameni are on the agenda, while Bellingham penned a seven-year deal when he joined. Tchouameni will remain a key part of Madrid’s plans.
