Liverpool and Chelsea have been informed of a major transfer decision involving top midfield target Aurelien Tchouameni, while Sunday’s Paper Talk also claims that Manchester United have been given a big lift to their hopes of signing Youri Tielemans.

TCHOUAMENI MAKES BIG TRANSFER DECISION

Liverpool and Chelsea look to have suffered a big blow to their hopes of landing top midfield target Aurelien Tchouameni this summer.

The Monaco star has been outstanding for the Ligue 1 outfit this season, leading to rumours that he will be on the move for a fee in the region of €50million.

Both Jurgen Klopp and Thomas Tuchel are known to rate the 22-year-old’s talents very highly. However, it looks like they might miss out on the talented midfielder.

Indeed, Tchouameni has indicated, like fellow Premier League target Erling Haaland, that he favours a switch to Real Madrid.

In terms of Liverpool‘s interest, the Reds are still to replace Gini Wijnaldum and believe Tchouameni can fill that void.

Chelsea are after the player as a long-term replacement for N’Golo Kante. However, they are currently hampered by the takeover saga surrounding the club after Roman Abramovich was forced to sell.

Finally, the report adds that Tchouameni believes he will have a better chance of first-team football at the Bernabeu. That is down to the fact that Real have an aging midfield, with Luka Modric 36, Toni Kroos 32 and Casemiro 30.
