Tchouameni is injured and will not be able to help Real Madrid in the near future

In yesterday's match between Real and Barcelona, Aurélien Tchouameni played the full 90 minutes. However, it was later revealed that he had suffered an injury.

Real Madrid has confirmed that Tchouameniwill miss matches due to a stress fracture of the second metatarsal bone in his left foot, but they did not specify the recovery timeline. According to reports from Fabrizio Romano, the Frenchman will be sidelined for six to eight weeks, depending on his recovery.

After a somewhat challenging start in Madrid, the midfielder earned a reputation as a key player. In Ancelotti's team, his performance was crucial, and the only other option for the team as a holding midfielder in place of Tchouameni is Eduardo Camavinga.

If the 23-year-old Frenchman is indeed out for two months, it means he won't be able to help "Los Blancos" in seven La Liga matches and the final three group-stage matches of the Champions League. In addition, he will have to miss France's matches in November against Gibraltar and Greece in the Euro 2024 qualification, although the national team has already secured a place in the Euro 2024 group stage.

Aurélien Tchouameni moved to Real Madrid from Monaco last summer for €80 million. In the previous season, he played 50 matches for the Madrid club and provided four assists.
