Juni Calafat Approves and Madrid Will Study the 'Hidden' Transfer, Bye to Tchouaméni

Aurélien Tchouaméni was back as central defender against Atalanta. It's a position he's not unfamiliar with, but it's clearly not the one he can perform in the best way. In fact, the Frenchman usually performs well in that position, but this time he gave away a penalty that equialized the game.

Raúl Asencio is doing his homework and very well. However, the long schedule encourages Carlo Ancelotti to be cautious, especially considering the numerous injuries that Real Madrid has suffered so far. However, this is not the only area in which the white club wants to make changes and Aurélien Tchouaméni is aware of it.

A possible replacement for Tchouaméni?

The club president knows that the departure of Toni Kroos has caused a disruption to Real Madrid's game.  The former German player was the one who led the team in most of the games.  That's why Florentino Pérez now needs to find the balance lost in the midfield in the transfer market.

For this reason, Real Madrid talent scouts took note last Tuesday of a very attractive player from  Atalanta.  He's not in the same style as Toni Kroos, but he could contribute a lot to the Meringue club.

Éderson caught the eye of Carlo Ancelotti in Bergamo. The Brazilian already has other teams waiting for him and Real Madrid don't want to be late. His physical presence and his great ability to arrive from the second line are traits that are very popular in Chamartín.

Aurélien Tchouaméni knows that he is not at his best

For now, the keys that Carlo Ancelotti has played haven't been enough. The Italian coach doesn't have a clear solution, even though the less usual ones have stepped up.  Dani Ceballos is performing well, while Aurélien Tchouaméni continues to leave many doubts both in the middle and in defense.

Aurélien Tchouaméni is failing to convince the Real Madrid fans and the board has him in their sights. He is a player with a lot of market and the Premier League has already shown some interest.  Carlo Ancelotti is a fan of his versatility, but the club has to make a decision if his level doesn't improve.
