Real Madrid is planning the team for next season and there's a name that raises doubts for Florentino: Aurélien Tchouaméni. At the time, 80+20 million euros were paid for him, and he hasn't performed as expected. The idea was for him to become a generational talent for the midfield, but so far, he hasn't delivered as anticipated.
On the table is the possibility of negotiating his departure, and an unexpected proposal has arrived. SPORT has discovered that Real Madrid has received a significant offer from the Premier League for Aurélien Tchouaméni. Specifically, it has come from Liverpool, willing to put up a lot of money to acquire him.
The offer sent by Liverpool for Aurélien Tchouaméni reaches 65 million euros, divided between fixed and variable amounts. The first package, fixed, is valued at 50 million euros, while the variables can reach 15 million. In this regard, the proposal doesn't fully convince, although it's true that Florentino is willing to let him go for the right price.
The investment in Aurélien Tchouaméni was significant and he hasn't performed as expected, but there's still confidence. If the initial investment can be recovered, Florentino might let him go, but Liverpool's offer isn't appealing. It has been rejected, although they are open to continuing negotiations for a higher transfer in economic terms.
Aurélien Tchouaméni: a Condition to Accept His Departure from Real Madrid
Everything would change for Aurélien Tchouaméni if Real Madrid manages to secure Florentino's desired transfer. The club is looking to strengthen the midfield with a profile that fits its philosophy and guarantees for the future. However, not everything is as straightforward as it seemed initially.
Zubimendi is the name that resonates the most as the perfect candidate to take on the responsibility of the Madrid midfield. His solidity, vision of the game, and commitment make him an ideal piece for Florentino Pérez's project. For months, his transfer has been considered a priority. However, the operation not only requires a significant financial outlay but also the freeing up of a key position in the locker room.
For Zubimendi to land at Bernabéu, a decision will need to be made that involves much more than numbers. His arrival would mean the sale of Aurélien Tchouaméni. We'll have to wait, but for now, Liverpool already knows that their first offer hasn't convinced Florentino...
