Chelsea handed Aurelien Tchouameni boost after Real Madrid transfer decision
According to the Spanish media outlet Marca (h/t Football.London), Chelsea could receive a boost in the race to sign Aurelien Tchouameni following a decision from Real Madrid regarding their transfer policy. He has become one of the highly-rated rising superstars in world football and could be in line to take the next step after this season.
Los Blancos were heavily linked with a move for Tchouameni amidst interest from the Blues. But that could change following the recent update regarding their transfer business. Real will be diverting their attention towards bolstering their attack instead of other areas of the pitch.
As such, the Champions League holders could be in the driving seat to secure the Frenchman’s signature. With the summer transfer window nearing closer by the day, Chelsea could potentially be in the driving seat to get the deal over the line.
Chelsea to pip Real Madrid?
This decision from Los Blancos could not come at a better moment with the summer transfer window drawing close with each passing day. The 22-year-old could instantly boost our team while simultaneously being one for the future as well.
While we have not received any confirmation just yet, it is well known at this point that Florentino Perez is targeting Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland. The total cost involved to sign both of them could prevent Real from finalising a move for other options.
Hence, we must use this opportunity and finalise a deal before other clubs enter the fray to secure Tchouameni’s signature. We simply cannot rule out the possibility that others would be in the mix, especially so given the youngster’s midfielder in recent times.

With Jorginho and N’Golo Kante close to entering the twilight of their careers, we must plan early and safeguard our interests. Moreover, Marina Granovskaia could opt against activating Saul Niguez’s buy option, while Ross Barkley could also be deemed dispensable next summer.
The Ligue 1 ace could be a fine addition to our midfield in such a case as we plan towards our long term future. It remains to be seen how this situation would turn out in the coming months ahead of the summer transfer window.
