Tchouameni to miss CL final

2024-05-25
MADRID: Real Madrid midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni will miss the Champions League final due to a foot injury and could be a doubt for the European Championship, Real manager Carlo Ancelotti said on Friday.

The 24-year-old, who has made 38 appearances across all competitions for the Spanish champions this season, has not played since he suffered a stress fracture during their Champions League semifinal win over Bayern Munich this month.

`He`s doing individual work but he`s not ready for the [Champions League] final,` Ancelotti told reporters ahead of their last LaLiga game against Real Betis on Saturday.

`Let`s see if he`s ready for the Euros.

France coach Didier Deschamps named Tchouameni in his 25-man squad for the European Championship which starts on June 14 in Germany.

Real face German side Borussia Dortmund at Wembley on June 1 aiming to win the Champions League for a recordextending 15th time.

Tchouameni`s compatriot Eduardo Camavinga may start at the base of the midfield.-Agencies
