The English club Liverpool is taking advantage of its match against Spanish counterpart Real Madrid to finalize a new deal aimed at strengthening the squad of Dutchman Arne Slot in the coming period.
Real Madrid is preparing for a crucial and decisive match against Liverpool in the fifth round of the Champions League group stage, aiming to revive its hopes of direct qualification after the recent defeat to the Italian team Milan.
According to information from the Spanish newspaper “Defensa Central”, the Anfield Road team has set its sights on French midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni of Real Madrid and is looking to secure his services in the near future to bolster its midfield.
Liverpool hopes to make a move for Tchouameni and intends to open negotiations with Real Madrid when the royal club visits Anfield next week for the highly anticipated Champions League match between the two teams.
The 24-year-old French international is under contract with Florentino Perez’s administration until June 2028, and his market value is estimated at 100 million euros, according to the Transfermarkt network.
Tchouameni has participated in 15 matches for Los Blancos this season under Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti, including 10 in La Liga, 4 in the Champions League, and the European Super Cup match, totaling 1,146 minutes.
