Real Madrid Spend Whooping €80M On Tchouameni From Monaco

France midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni has officially joined Real Madrid from Monaco in a deal worth 80 million euros ($84 million) for 6 years.

According to sources, the 22-year-old has cost the European and Spanish champions the above-mentioned fee with add-ons in the range of 20M euros.

The former Bordeaux playmaker has won 10 caps since making his Les Bleus debut in September.

In a joint statement by both clubs, "Real Madrid and Monaco have agreed on the transfer of the player Aurelien Tchouameni, who will be linked to the club for the next six seasons," they said.

"Next Tuesday, June 14, at 12:00 at Real Madrid City, the presentation ceremony for Aurelien Tchouameni as a new Real Madrid player will take place after the corresponding medical examination," they added.

Madrid have also signed Chelsea centre-back Antonio Ruediger ahead of the new season but missed out on Paris Saint-Germain's Kylian Mbappe last month as he decided to stay in the French capital.
