Real Madrid are reportedly open to selling Manchester United target Aurelien Tchouameni. Los Blancos are yet to open talks with the Red Devils, who are keen on signing him.

    According to a report in The Sun, Jose Mourinho wants to keep Tchouameni at Real Madrid, but the Spanish giants want to sanction a move. They are looking to raise money to sign Rodri from Manchester City.

    The FIFA World Cup Golden Ball winner is keen on moving to the Santiago Bernabeu this summer. He has just one year left on his contract, and Los Blancos see him as the ideal player to add to bolster the squad.

    Manchester United have been keeping tabs on the Frenchman this summer, and believe that he can replace Casemiro. The Brazilian star has left the club following the expiry of his contract, and has joined Inter Miami.

    Tchouameni has been constantly linked as the #1 target for the midfield this summer, despite the signings of Andrey Santos and Youri Tielemans. They spent £50 million to sign the Brazilian, while activating the £35 million release clause of the Belgian.

    Rio Ferdinand has been a huge fan of Tchouameni, urging the FIFA World Cup star to join the Red Devils this summer and said on his podcast this month:

    The Sun report that the Real Madrid star will cost €80 to €100 million.

    Aurelien Tchouameni was reportedly offered to Manchester United in 2021, when he was still an AS Monaco star. However, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was not keen, as he was pushing for Declan Rice.

    They eventually signed Casemiro in 2022, when Real Madrid signed Tchouameni from the Ligue1 side. Manchester United are now looking to sign the Frenchman as the replacement for Casemiro.
