Real Madrid: Valverde received several stitches after his fight with Tchouameni

During this terrible 2025/2026 season, Real Madrid was shaken by the affair of the altercation between Federico Valverde and Aurélien Tchouameni. The two midfielders were fined €500,000 each, but the Uruguayan emerged from this affair with the label of the main culprit. Having left to join his selection for the World Cup, the Merengue captain agreed to return to this matter.

“I feel very good, I have had the support of many people and the affection of the fans. The support of the club too. Sometimes you have to overcome these mini obstacles in football, in life. We learn to grow as a person. All this will make me become a better captain in the coming years and I hope to be able to defend the colors of Real Madrid again.”he confided.
