The ex of Rennes is not only ahead in Madrid, now he is also a protagonist with France

Since he returned from the Tchouameni World Cup, he has not managed to recover the level of the start of the season

eduardo camavinga (30 million) and Aurélien Tchouaméni (80 million) have been two of Madrid’s great bets in recent times. The two are called to take over from Kroos and Modric when they are not there. The whites’ plan also includes the signing of Bellingham, who would complete the midfield of the future.

Since the two arrived, he has made it clear that, due to potential, the investment by both seems justified. But both are going through the classic process of adapting to a big club. A process that includes moments of irregularity like the one Tchouaméni has been experiencing since he returned from the World Cup. The downturn of the former Monaco player also coincides with the good moment of Camavinga, who has become a direct competition for his compatriot. The reason is that the latter is playing more and more minutes as a midfielder, despite the fact that he was aiming inside.

Both players are versatile and can play in any position in the midfield, but it coincides that both in Madrid and with France they are having more opportunities at the base of the play.

At Madrid Camvinga has already passed Tchouaméni in Ancelotti’s rotationwhile with France, in this last stoppage of selections, the titles have been shared but the performance of the former Rennes player has received more praise in his country.

two different realities

The contexts of the two teams are different. Madrid plays with a clear midfielder, while France is committed to a kind of double pivot, where Rabiot is a fixture in the eleven, but his companion varies.

Ancelotti is aware that Tchouaméni is not at his best, but he is convinced that his level will improve. The footballer, for the moment, recognizes that he is experiencing something new for him, but he hopes to turn the situation around.

“There can be hard moments in the career of an athlete, it’s the first time that’s happened to me but I’m still learning. There’s a lot of competition at Real Madrid and you have to be good to play,” he said recently.
