Therefore, the Spanish giants can now turn their attention to other areas of the squad which they could potentially bolster. The addition of the French youngster will lay long-term foundations for a midfield overhaul for the Spanish Champions, with the current ageing midfield trio in Casemiro, Toni Kroos and Luka Modric still delivering at the highest level.<\/p>\n<p>Monaco outlined that no offer beneath \u20ac80 million will be considered for the midfielder but that will not stop <em>Los Blancos<\/em>\u00a0from flexing their financial muscles in order to land one of the most talented young midfielders in Europe &#8211; a point justified by the calibre of clubs in pursuit of the 22-year-old. Tchouam\u00e9mi was an instrumental part of the Monaco squad helping the side regain Champions League status this season.<\/p>\n<h3>Liverpool and PSG Remain In Contact With Agent<\/h3>\n<p>Despite reports seemingly directing towards a Tchouam\u00e9ni move to Real Madrid, Liverpool and PSG remain outsiders in the race for the Monaco star.<\/p>\n<p>Jurgen Klopp&#8217;s side will look to add youth to the midfield with such a signing. A player of Tchouam\u00e9ni&#8217;s quality at a young age would only bolster the well-oiled machine of Liverpool making them an even bigger powerhouse than they already are.<\/p>\n<p>The same can be said for the French Champions who could keep the France international in his homeland if they were to swoop in for the midfielder. However, with Monaco setting their valuation and reports suggesting the player&#8217;s preference to move to Spain, these European giants may miss out on landing this particular signing.<\/p>\n<p>Main Photo<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Interest in midfielder Aur\u00e9lien Tchouam\u00e9ni has seen AS Monaco set a price tag of \u20ac80 million for his transfer, with Real Madrid seemingly the preferred destination for the highly-rated Frenchman.
