Transfer: Mourinho picks two midfielders to keep at Real Madrid
Real Madrid Manager Aims to Retain Key Players
Real Madrid manager José Mourinho is focused on retaining both Aurélien Tchouaméni and Federico Valverde for the upcoming season.
The club has already lost midfielder Dani Ceballos, who departed as a free agent this summer. Meanwhile, the future of Eduardo Camavinga at the Santiago Bernabéu remains uncertain. Mourinho has expressed a clear desire to keep Tchouaméni and Valverde within his squad.
Tchouaméni has signed a new five-year contract with Real Madrid, which is expected to be confirmed in the coming days. Football transfer expert Fabrizio Romano announced on X that the new deal extends the player’s contract to June 2031, with legal terms already approved.
Mourinho’s intentions for player retention suggest that additional contract renewals may be forthcoming as the club prepares for the next season.
