Things are going in all directions at Real Madrid! After the clash between Antonio Rüdiger and Alvaro Carreras and Kylian Mbappé’s controversial getaway to Italy with his girlfriend, Aurélien Tchouameni and Federico Valverde made the headlines yesterday. Marca announced in fact that the two midfielders had a violent altercation. An incident so violent that some said they had rarely seen it in Valdebebas.
Sometimes it is said that the night brings advice. But this morning, the time was not for reconciliation between the two players. Worse than that. Marca reveals that a new incident, described as “very serious” by some members of the locker room, occurred between Tchouameni and Valverde. “A fight which degenerated from the start, even forcing several members of the team to intervene, and which ended with the Uruguayan being transferred to hospital”writes the Madrid media.
Real Madrid implodes
A serious event which contrasts more than ever with the reputation of a healthy locker room of Real Madrid during the Ancelotti era. “Sources say this new conflict was “much worse” than the one that happened yesterday”even adds Marca. While waiting to see if Tchouameni and Valverde can put the pieces back together, this new incident forced Casa Banca to call an emergency crisis meeting.
As the Clasico approaches, Real Madrid want all this commotion to stop. The escalation of tensions worries the highest levels of a club which is perhaps going through an unprecedented crisis in its history when it was European champion barely two years ago. In any case, all eyes will be on the Madrid players. Their attitude will be watched more than ever on Sunday against Barça.
