Regretting His Decision, Florentino Pérez Puts Him Up for Sale: 'Fed up with...'

He invested an exorbitant sum and it is not bearing fruit. Florentino wants him out.

Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez has found himself in a difficult situation regarding Aurélien Tchouaméni. After the French midfielder's disappointing performance in the Clásico against Barcelona, the board is beginning to reconsider the club's multi-million-dollar transfer in 2022. For a Real Madrid used to excellence, Tchouaméni's performance in this type of match is unsatisfactory. Patience seems to be running out.

Florentino Pérez, accustomed to a demanding management, invested a large sum in the transfer of the player from AS Monaco. He was hoping to add a key piece in the midfield. However, the performance in the classic set off alarm bells in management. The staff now doesn't look unfavorably on the possibility of his transfer in the next transfer windows.

The Premier League's Interest as a Viable Exit

Despite his poor performances in Spain, Tchouaméni remains an attractive player for Premier League clubs. The English league, known for its high level of competition and financial potential, is emerging as a possible destination for the midfielder. According to sources close to the club, there are teams willing to invest in him, which could be an alternative for Real Madrid if they decide to recoup their investment.

This possibility has kept the Madrid board hopeful, as they hope to recoup a large part of the investment made, estimated at 80 million euros. Aurélien Tchouaméni still enjoys a good reputation in the Premier League. If one of its teams presents a convincing offer, Florentino Pérez could give the green light to the operation.

Florentino Pérez's Patience is Running Out

Florentino Pérez has shown that he doesn't usually have any qualms about making crucial decisions if a player's performance doesn't meet Real Madrid's current expectations. Tchouaméni's performance has been questioned on several occasions, and although the young midfielder has shown glimpses of quality, he hasn't achieved the consistency needed in the Madrid midfield.

The Real Madrid president, known for his determination in difficult times, has already signalled that he's open to a future sale of Tchouaméni. The opportunity to sell him to the Premier League is becoming more attractive as rumors of a possible offer for the winter transfer market grow.
