By Jorge C. Pic?n and Marc Mechenoua - Real Madrid are trying to tie up Aur?lien Tchouam?ni. As has transpired these days in the French press, the white club has accelerated negotiations with the footballer and with Monaco to try to integrate the French pearl. However, sources from the said negotiation assure Goal that there is still no agreement between all parties. PSG are responsible for this, who intervened to try to snatch the player from him, opening a new battle between Parisians and Madridistas.
Madrid spied on Tchouameni all year and in contact with him and his entourage, working on the signing. In this task, Madrid relied on Luis Campos for a large part of the season. The Portuguese has been working with the Whites for the last few years to help in this type of situation and, precisely, he has a lot of influence in Monaco, where he worked as a sporting director between 2013 and 2016. This interest has had such an effect. that the midfielder The 23-year-old has made Madrid a priority ahead of other suitors who want to have him.
Mbapp? wanted him in Madrid
One of the first interested in signing Tchouam?ni for Madrid was Mbapp?. In his conversations with white directors when confirming his signing, he commented on the possibility of incorporating his compatriot. In this way, everything seemed to be aimed at the two finishing together at the Santiago Bernab?u. However, everything has changed in recent days.
Once Kylian's renewal was announced, Madrid attempted to fast-track Tchouam?ni's incorporation, aware that PSG and Liverpool were lagging behind. He couldn't afford to lose another gem in the market. The 'reds' fell out of the race and for a few days they have been fleeing that they will not fight for him. However, it was all of Paris that threw all the meat on the grill. Mainly because it was one of Mbapp?'s first requests as the new leader of the project and Al-Khela?fi wants to please his star. Also involved is Luis Campos, who, oddly enough, helped Madrid bring Tchouameni closer together and, now that he's going to be PSG's sporting director, is trying to change his mind.
