Real Madrid midfielder Aurélien Tchouaméni could withdraw from France squad due to injury

Real Madrid midfielder Aurélien Tchouaméni could withdraw from France squad due to injury Aurélien Tchouaméni (26) may be forced to withdraw from the France squad due to injury, according to reports in L’Équipe. Having sustained a groin injury, the midfielder was unable to complete Tuesday’s training session and will undergo thorough examinations to determine the nature and severity of his injury. This is another blow for the Real Madrid player, who had already missed the September training camp. Zinédine Zidane had deemed it too soon – as Tchouaméni had only just returned from an adductor injury sustained during the 2026 World Cup – and had therefore opted to keep him available for his club. Should his absence be confirmed, the former AS Monaco player would join the list of unavailable players, alongside Juventus’ Pierre Kalulu (26) and Inter Milan’s Marcus Thuram (29), who have both withdrawn and been replaced by VfL Wolfsburg full-back Saël Kumbedi (21) and AFC Bournemouth forward Eli Junior Kroupi (20) respectively.
