Arsenal and Liverpool have received bad news over their interest in Aurelien Tchouameni – the midfielder is expected to remain at the club real Madrid in the long term.
Tchouameni, 24, had been on the radar of a number of top European teams after an impressive second season with Madrid, in which the midfielder scored three goals in 38 appearances.
He played a key role in winning both the Champions League and La Liga, although there was talk of a move to the Premier League this summer, with Arsenal and Liverpool the main interested parties.
However, they will have to wait if they want to sign the French international, as Tchouameni is expected to remain in the Spanish capital for the foreseeable future. According to Fabrizio Romano , Madrid are intent on keeping Tchouameni in Spain, shutting down speculation over a move to Arsenal or Liverpool.
“We saw these rumours in England and we keep getting a lot of questions about Tchouameni because the summer transfer window has just closed,” Romano said via his podcast Here We Go .
“A lot of people have raised rumours about Liverpool, Arsenal, Tchouameni in 2025. I wanted to clarify something for 2024, 2025, 2026, whenever. Aurelien Tchouameni’s intention is to stay at Real Madrid. Real Madrid’s intention is to keep Aurelien Tchouameni as a crucial player for that project.
“For the present and the future. They are in love with Tchouameni, the player, the professional. His performance in the centre-back position was something that the Real Madrid coaching staff valued very much. For this reason, Real Madrid are not even considering selling Aurelien Tchouameni. The situation is perfect between the club and the player.
“I can assure you that, despite all the rumours, we know how many clubs can appreciate a top-class player like Tchouameni. But as for the concrete chances of him leaving Madrid, for the moment, they are zero.”
