Liverpool have reportedly been informed that a big-money offer for Aurelien Tchouameni will be accepted by Real Madrid after concerns expressed by Carlo Ancelotti opened the door to his move – while a comparison of his stats to Martin Zubimendi and Ryan Gravenberch also tells an interesting story.
The 36-times-capped France midfielder was targeted by the Reds in summer 2022 when it emerged he was to leave Monaco. And with then boss Jurgen Klopp having made several personal calls to the player, it will have come as a major disappointment to the Liverpool manager when the player instead opted for a move to Real Madrid.
And while the Reds made a strong case to get the player to move to Anfield, the success Tchouameni has enjoyed since moving to the Bernabeu means he will surely have little regret.
However, despite helping them to win seven major honours in that time, including the LaLiga and Champions League double last season, reports on Tuesday from Spain revealed that Real Madrid are now open to the midfielder’s potential exit in 2025.
And amid claims Liverpool could look to re-launch their interest in his services, Fichajes now reports that the Spanish giants have now informed the Reds that an offer worth €80m (£66.6m, $88.6m) for the 24-year-old will indeed be accepted – and potentially as soon as January.
Tchouameni has appeared a vital cog in Ancelotti’s Los Blancos machine in recent times, racking up 97 appearances across his two full seasons so far.
But in explaining why they could now let him leave, AS claims Ancelotti has major concerns over his form, with the Frenchman’s display in Sunday’s 1-1 derby draw against Atletico Madrid of particular worry and with his midfielder partner Federico Valverde ‘putting him to shame’ by ‘often seen covering for Tchouameni, or in the spot that he was meant to be in.’

What has Ancelotti said about Tchouameni?
Ancelotti, for his part, was questioned about the performance of the Frenchman after the game, though there was no chance of the Italian hanging his player out to dry, instead stating: “For me, Tchouameni did well, he had presence
