Real Madrid are facing growing internal tension after reports emerged of a heated altercation between midfield stars Federico Valverde and Aurélien Tchouaméni during training this week.
According to multiple reports from Spanish and international media, the confrontation began during a training session and quickly escalated into a serious argument. Sources claim the disagreement continued into the dressing room, where teammates and staff had to step in to separate the two players.
Some reports suggest tensions had already been building inside the squad following a disappointing season and increasing frustration in the locker room. The incident reportedly intensified after accusations were made about information being leaked to the media.
Spanish outlets also claimed that the situation turned physical, with Valverde allegedly suffering a head injury after falling during the confrontation. He was reportedly taken for medical treatment and received stitches.
The reported clash comes at a difficult moment for Real Madrid, who are under pressure ahead of a crucial El Clásico showdown against FC Barcelona. Media reports indicate club officials held emergency meetings following the incident as concerns grow about divisions inside the squad.
Neither Valverde nor Tchouaméni has publicly commented on the situation, and Real Madrid have yet to release an official statement addressing the reports.
