Real Madrid beat PSG and close a strategic signing for 100 million euros

Real Madrid managed to close its second summer deal after a fierce struggle with Paris Saint-Germain. Los Blancos’ first deal this summer is German Antonio Rudiger, who signed for free after the expiration of his contract with Chelsea.

And, according to the Spanish newspaper Marca, an official announcement is expected soon, as Real Madrid has concluded a deal for Aurelien Tchouameni to wear the white shirt next season.

The agreement between Los Blancos and Monaco has been completed and the midfielder will become the club’s second signing of the pre-season, after Antonio Rudiger. Tchouameni was wanted and the 22-year-old France international is known to have turned down offers from Liverpool and Paris Saint-Germain.

Paris Saint-Germain, in particular, kept trying to sign the young midfielder until the last minute, but Real Madrid managed to get past him and get his player back. And, according to Fabrizio Romano, the famous transfer journalist, the deal will cost Real Madrid 100 million euros in the form of 80 million fixed in addition to another 20 million as variables.

Real Madrid is building for the future with the transfer of Tchouameni

The signing is a strategic target for the future as the club is well aware that their midfield needs to be revitalized before it is too late.

The historic and hugely successful trio, Casemiro, Luka Modric and Toni Kroos, could gradually give way to the next treble in the coming years at Eduardo Camavinga, Fede Valverde and Tchouameni.

While Tchouameni, like Camavinga, is seen as a key piece in the future, he is also expected to contribute immediately, as he is a full international in the France squad.

With the interest of other clubs, this is a coup for Los Blancos, who have included one of the continent’s best young players. The key to completing the deal was the player’s desire to join Real Madrid, where Carlo Ancelotti – who contacted the player – would be happy to host him.
