With Real Madrid’s highly publicised struggles with injury in recent weeks and months, it is always great news when a player gets back to full fitness and is ready for a return to action.
In his press conference today ahead of Real Madrid’s trip to Bilbao to take on Athletic Club, Carlo Ancelotti has confirmed that Aurélien Tchouaméni will be back for the match.
‘Tchouaméni is ready to play from the first minute. We’ll see tomorrow where he plays,’ Ancelotti said, raising questions about the position the French star could adopt in tomorrow’s match.
The match tomorrow will be Tchouaméni’s first in around a month, as he last played in Madrid’s Champions League loss against AC Milan at the start of November.
He most recently has played in midfield for Los Blancos but has also been adapted to play in central defence on occasion this season when the need has arisen.
Real Madrid’s fans will be happy to see the 24-year-old make his return to action, as the club has sorely needed some rotation in recent weeks as it has seemed their players have been dropping like flies.
