No one yet knows where Aurélien Tchouaméni (22) will evolve next season. But one thing is certain: AS Monaco will largely make a profit from the purchase of the former Bordelais, which cost them €21m in 2020. Despite a current contract until 2024, the French international (8 selections, 1 but) should indeed not stay on the Rock this summer. Courted by Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid, the native of Rouen will be spoiled for choice.
Asked about this, however, the main stakeholder stated that it was not necessary “not necessarily play at Real Madrid or Manchester City to be selected”, before paying a nice compliment to PSG. “ It’s a top club, with very great players. They have made a lot of investments since the beginning of the Qatari era, they have objectives. Unfortunately, they haven’t won the Champions League yet but they have plenty of titles, great players. They want to look further, but they already have a great team. » Does the capital club have a head start on its competitors?
Chelsea, a serious competitor but…
Not necessarily. In Spain, the media ensure that Real Madrid are still on pole, even if an arrival of the Frenchman in La Liga will be linked to that of Erling Haaland. Clearly, if the Casa Blanca recruits the Norwegian, in addition to Kylian Mbappé, it will not have the funds necessary to attract Tchouaméni in its nets. Today, AS claims that Chelsea would also be in the running. Recruit a listed midfielder from AS Monaco, the Blues have already done it with Tiémoué Bakayoko. Without much success, however.
Will the Londoners be able to quote everyone at the post? In Madrid, it is believed that Thomas Tuchel’s club and PSG are the only two teams that can offer a better financial deal for the player. But as you know, the Chelsea track remains subject to the decisions of the British government. And if the finances of the Blues remain frozen, the question of the transfer window will be quickly settled.
