According to a report from Liverpool Echo, the Merseyside club are one of several prominent clubs that harbour a keen interest for Aurelien Tchouameni. It was further stated in the report that Real Madrid view the midfielder as a pivotal asset and are reluctant to entertain the notion of his departure, a sentiment shared by the player himself.
Having recently joined Madrid last summer, Tchouameni was extensively linked with a transfer to Anfield, indicating Liverpool’s sustained interest in securing his services.
Tchouameni’s Remarkable Season At The Bernabeu
During his time at the Madrid club, the 23-year-old showcased an impressive performance throughout the season, making a significant impact at the heart of Carlo Ancelotti’s midfield setup. Tchouameni contributed by providing four assists in a total of 50 appearances for Los Blancos across various competitions.
Hailing from Rouen, the midfield talent demonstrated his capabilities on both ends of the pitch, with notable averages of 1.9 tackles, 1.5 interceptions, 1.5 clearances, 1.2 shots, 0.7 key passes, and 0.8 dribbles per 90 minutes in La Liga. Furthermore, his accuracy in distributing the ball from the midfield was evident, as he achieved a completion rate of 93.5% for his attempted passes in top-flight football (according to statistics from WhoScored).
Tchouameni’s commitment to the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium extends until the summer of 2028. As a result, Real Madrid currently have no immediate imperative to offload him.
Should Liverpool Boss Jurgen Klopp Test Madrid’s Resolve By Making A Bid?
Tchouameni possesses adept tackling skills, effectively reading the game to regain possession for his team in the central area. He is unfazed by the need to clear the danger when necessary, while also exhibiting proficiency in distributing the ball accurately.
The young French talent is capable of executing powerful runs with the ball from the midfield and can deliver forceful long-range shots.
Currently, Tchouameni remains in the process of honing his footballing skills at Real Madrid. Consequently, there is the anticipation that under the guidance of Carlo Ancelotti, he will continue to progress and flourish in the foreseeable future, should the decision be made to retain his services beyond the upcoming summer.
Since the Anfield club are in dire need of midfield replacement it is obvious of them to pursue potential targets ahead of the transfer deadline. However, Jurgen Klopp’s efforts to secure his services would be futile given it is very unlikely that the French midfielder would consider an exit so soon. If the Reds were to pursue his signature then Los Blancos would demand a huge sum in return and that would not be favourable for the Merseysiders.
