French-Cameroonian Aurelien Tchouameni has made a timely return to Real Madrid group training, having successfully recovered from an ankle injury that kept him off the pitch since last month.
The 24-year-old French international sustained the injury during Real Madrid’s narrow 3-2 defeat to AC Milan.
Anticipated to be sidelined for nearly four weeks, Tchouameni’s comeback aligns perfectly with the team’s needs as they prepare for their next match against Athletic Club.
His presence is particularly vital, given that teammate Eduardo Camavinga is currently injured, leaving a gap in the midfield.
Additionally, with Rodrygo and Lucas Vazquez also on the mend, coach Carlo Ancelotti may soon have a more robust lineup to choose from for the critical match on Wednesday.
Tchouameni, who has faced scrutiny over his recent performances, is eager to demonstrate his value and secure his position in Ancelotti’s starting eleven.
His return not only bolsters the squad but also provides him with the chance to silence critics and showcase his capabilities.
Tchouameni was in France to Cameroonian parents but has chosen to represent the French national team.
