After Real Madrid’s defeat against FC Barcelona in the Spanish Super Cup, everyone is being criticized in Madrid, apart from Kylian Mbappé, the only one who is out this Monday. The players of the Merengue squad are simply massacred in the local press, who did not appreciate this new humiliation inflicted by the sworn enemy. Some, like Vinicius Jr, are logically not used to so much virulence from the media in recent years. For others, however, it is routine, like Aurélien Tchouameni, very often criticized in the Spanish capital.
Carlo Ancelotti may have confidence in himself, to the point of preferring him as a central defender to the sensation Raul Asencio even though it is not his natural position, the Frenchman is unanimously unanimous in Madrid… But in a bad way. Against him, clearly. On Sunday again, he was often poorly positioned and beaten by his Barcelona counterparts on numerous occasions, resulting in a catastrophic performance.
His teammates, still not convinced
And even in the Madrid locker room, his case divides. If some players defend him by arguing that he does not play in his position, others have lost confidence in his qualities and his ability to play in a club like Real Madrid. Quite strong information revealed by The Athleticand which proves that even internally, the former AS Monaco player divides.
Suffice to say that in the coming weeks, his performances will be scrutinized by Madrid public opinion. A departure is logically not planned during this first month of 2025, but the situation could clearly change this summer, while in recent months, various media have already explained that Real Madrid will listen to offers. And it is clear that an adventure far from Madrid could be the best solution for Aurélien Tchouameni to regain his level…
