Like his captain of the French team Kylian Mbappé, Aurélien Tchouameni begins the first meeting of the Real Madrid season in Liga this Tuesday evening against Osasuna. And this, as number 6.

This is already the fourth season of Aurélien Tchouameni in Real Madrid! The French international is expected to be one of the tauliers of the training now led by Xabi Alonso and, after being used in central defense by the successor to Carlo Ancelotti during the Club World Cup in the United States, he will start the exercise in his defensive midfield.

Real will indeed evolve in 4-3-3 for its entry into the liga, this Tuesday evening in Bernabéu, during the arrival of Osasuna, 9th in the last championship. The Basque technician landed from Leverkusen worked this system in the only preparation match a week ago in Austria, with Federico Valverde and Arda Güler in relayers.

In attack, we find Brahim Diaz on the right wing to accompany the two star players of the Merengues, Kylian Mbappé and Vinicius. Rodrygo is therefore on the bench, while he has been courted by great Europe for months (after Arsenal last year, Manchester City would now target it). Gonzalo Garcia is also starting among the replacements.

Tchouameni and Mbappé against two French defenders

In defense, Dean Huijsen, accompanied by Eder Militao as a central hinge, and the Starts Trent Alexander-Arnold and Alvaro Carreras made their debut in Liga. Antonio Rüdiger is suspended, Ferland Mendy, Eduardo Camavanga and Endrick recover from an injury and Jude Bellingham, operated on a shoulder, lacks the first three months of competition.

In front of Real, we find Ante Budimir, the 34 -year -old Croatian scorer of the Pamplona formation, who remains on seasons at 17 then 21 goals in the league. The eleven Navarrais has two French players trained in Toulouse: Flavien Boyomo, a central defender now International Cameroonian, and Valentin Rosier, lateral passed by the OGC Nice and the French Hopes team.
