Liverpool are reportedly preparing a major £50 million bid to secure the signature of Real Madrid’s highly-rated midfielder Aurélien Tchouaméni, as Arne Slot looks to bolster his midfield for the future. The French international, who moved to the Spanish giants in a €80 million deal from AS Monaco in 2022, has quickly established himself as one of the brightest talents in European football. However, with Liverpool aiming to rejuvenate their squad and strengthen key areas, Tchouaméni has emerged as a prime target for the Premier League side.
Tchouaméni’s arrival at Real Madrid was initially hailed as a coup, with many seeing him as the successor to legendary midfielder Casemiro. The 24-year-old has impressed with his physicality, vision, and composure on the ball, making him a vital part of Madrid’s midfield rotation. Despite this, rumors have begun swirling that Tchouaméni could be open to a move away from the Santiago Bernabéu due to a lack of consistent starting minutes under manager Carlo Ancelotti, with the likes of Luka Modrić and Toni Kroos still dominating the midfield.
Liverpool’s interest in the Frenchman comes at a crucial time for the club, as Slot9 looks to address the aging midfield options at Anfield. The Reds are desperate for a dynamic, box-to-box midfielder capable of driving the team forward. Tchouaméni fits that profile perfectly, offering both defensive solidity and creative flair.
A £50 million bid would be a significant financial outlay, but it’s believed that Real Madrid would consider the offer if the player expresses a desire to leave. Should the move materialize, it would mark a major coup for Liverpool, providing them with a world-class midfield talent to build around for years to come. With other top European clubs also rumored to be watching Tchouaméni’s situation, the coming weeks could see a bidding war for one of Europe’s hottest young midfield prospects.
