Real Madrid midfielder Aurélien Tchouaméni recently spoke on the altercation he and Federico Valverde had last spring, which ended with the Uruguayan in the hospital. Although they never came to blows, he admitted that “something ugly happened.”
The incident occurred during the chaotic final weeks of Real Madrid’s 2025–26 season. Reports indicated that Tchouaméni and Valverde got in a locker room fight that resulted in the latter requiring stitches for a cut in his head that forced him to miss three games.
