Hi Ed2

Is there any truth to the rumours linking us to tchouameni?

{Ed002's Note - Aurelien Tchouameni (CM/DM) Real Madrid do not wish to sell but recovering the money spent last year would go a long way towards topping up the Mbappe pot. Chelsea were blocked from completing negotiations for the player last season and he would be their first choice if available as they seek two such players for this summer. Real Madrid has spoken to with Chelsea about him during discussions over two other players. Bayern Munich have also told Real Madrid that they will be interested if he were to be made available. There is no declared interest from elsewhere and any move seems unlikely with Arsenal already signing Rice. Previously illegally tapped up by Klopp but Liverpool have other targets. Real Madrid would much rather keep him and let Federico Valverde leave if one does need to go.

Would Valverde be an option?

{Ed002's Note - Federico Valverde (CM) Real Madrid are ideally not looking to sell the player, previously of interest to Bayern Munich, Liverpool and Manchester United, as they expect him to settle in as a regular as Modric and Kroos are coming to the end of their RM careers. That was explained to a PL club who enquired when discussing another player. Manchester City have sent scouts to look at him as they look to add to their Central Midfield options. Liverpool interest could return after losing out on Bellingham but right now they seem to have other targets. Player does not want to move on but perhaps an option for Real Madrid to look into selling if they want to push for Mbappe this summer - could well leave this summer.}
