It is reported that Jose Mourinho would be willing to allow Aurelien Tchouameni to leave in order to sign Mateus Fernandes this summer. Manchester United are interested in both midfielders ahead of making major changes to their midfield. Tchouameni is about to enter the penultimate season of his contract with the European giants, and it is suggested he will move to another club if it appears he will not agree to a new contract. Following a second consecutive trophyless season in 2025/2026, several members of the Madrid squad will be sold, and the 26-year-old might be one who is considered no longer needed. The French international is currently representing his nation at the World Cup.

According to The Telegraph, Manchester United have identified Real Madrid's Aurelien Tchouameni as a potential replacement for Casemiro. Tchouameni's availability could depend on Real Madrid's success in the market. The club has a strong interest in Man City midfielder Rodri, who is currently in contract talks. If Rodri decides against extending his contract, Real Madrid would be encouraged to make a move but would need to raise funds through sales. The same logic applies to Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez, who has indicated interest in a move to Real Madrid. Tchouameni could be sold, though Real Madrid are also open to offers for his compatriot Eduardo Camavinga. Man Utd could take advantage of this situation.

Real Madrid is reportedly willing to sell Aurélien Tchouaméni due to his inconsistent performance. Clubs from the Premier League, including Manchester United, have shown interest in acquiring him. Real Madrid plans to use the proceeds from his sale to reinvest in a player who fits their playing philosophy. Despite being initially brought in as a promising talent to lead the future of their midfield, Tchouaméni has struggled to establish himself in his natural position or as a makeshift central defender, raising doubts about his fit in Carlo Ancelotti's system. The club views his sale as an opportunity to address the void left by Toni Kroos's retirement and secure a midfielder who can provide the clarity and control needed to maintain their competitive edge.
