It is more than ever the crisis at Real Madrid, where the locker room seems divided as rarely. A point of maximum tension was reached this week with the altercation between Aurélien Tchouaméni and Federico Valverde after training, immediately reported by the Spanish media.
What is certain is that something serious enough happened for the Uruguayan midfielder to be taken to hospital with head trauma, and for Real Madrid to open disciplinary proceedings against its players. But what exactly happened?
Via Instagram, Valverde broke the silence to discuss a disagreement with his teammate which led to an altercation. Tchouaméni gave himself up in another way. By sending messages to the influencer Aqababe, specialized in “gossip” and “people”, and not at all in football (except when it comes to relaying photos of Kylian Mbappé and Ester Exposito).
Tchouaméni denies it, but…
“Something happened but I can’t say anything”wrote the former Bordeaux and Monaco player, who did not wish to say much more. Tchouaméni, however, assures that there was no “fight” and that he did not give “punch” in Valverde. A version identical to that given by the Uruguayan.
“During the altercation, I accidentally hit a table, which caused a small cut on my forehead which required a protocol visit to the hospital. At no time did my teammate hit me, and neither did I,” Valverde assured. While the latter denounces the leaks in the press about this clash, we note the astonishing speech of Tchouaméni who asks Aqababe to “talk about that”, that is to say to deny the version of a fight, while asking him to be ” discreet “. A bit of a failure, for once.
