In a recent

report

, AS stated that

Manchester United

are keeping a keen eye on

Real Madrid

midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni. It has been mentioned that the Red Devils have set their sights on the France international as they look to bolster their midfield this summer.

Tchouameni had a solid campaign at the Madrid club after he put in a run of impressive performances at the centre of their midfield. The 26-year-old scored two goals and earned two assists in 49 matches for

Los Blancos

last season in various competitions.

The French talent is currently among the best central midfielders in La Liga. Hence, it is no surprise that the Red Devils are showing interest in recruiting him later this year.

His current deal at the Madrid club will run out in the summer of 2028, so

Man United

would have to launch a convincing offer if they want to land him this off-season.

Tchouameni is a good tackler of the ball and can read the danger well to earn possession back for his team in the middle of the park. He doesn’t mind putting his foot through the ball when required and is an accurate passer as well.

The French sensation can even chip in by scoring and creating a few important goals for his team from midfield. Tchouameni is primarily a defensive midfielder but can also serve as a box-to-box midfielder or as a centre-back if needed. However, there are some concerns over whether he can make a smooth transition to life in the

Premier League

if the Red Devils manage to bring him to Old Trafford this summer.

Tchouameni would inject more bite and steel into

head coach Michael Carrick’s midfield. He is good enough to challenge for a regular first-team spot at the Theatre of Dreams next season.

At 26, Tchouameni has got his peak years ahead of him, which makes him a great signing for Carrick to pursue in this transfer window. He will also help

compete for some major honours in the coming years. Thus, Carrick would be wise to step up his efforts to sign Tchouameni this off-season.
