Why Is Tchouameni Not In Matchday Squad vs Real Betis?

Things have gone from bad to worse for Real Madrid this season, as they have witnessed humiliation in every tournament they have competed in this season, leading to a second successive trophyless term since Kylian Mbappe arrived.

On top of it, their injury crisis hasn't helped either. Players like Eder Militao, Dean Huijsen, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and many more have missed crucial games due to long-term injuries, which have hindered the team's collective effort in chasing success this season.

The latest one to add to the already long list is one of the best defensive midfielders in the world currently, Aurelien Tchouameni. In this article, Sportsdunia will take a look at what happened to the French sensation and how long the Aurelien Tchouameni injury will keep him out of action.

Real Madrid Midfielder Misses Trip To Betis

After the recent news of Eder Militao and Arda Guler out for the season with respective injuries, it is the Tchouameni injury that is bound to hurt the Los Blancos more. The Frenchman has been one of the better players in the squad this season, and his absence was well felt in the heartbreaking 4-3 loss to Bayern Munich in the UEFA Champions League quarter-final 2nd leg.

Real Madrid just announced their squad list for their trip to Betis, from where Aurelien Tchouameni was a notable omission. However, if reports are to be believed, Tchouameni will return soon and in time for the Clasico, as he is just suffering from a muscle overload in his left hamstring.

The Real Madrid medical team wanted to keep the player fresh for the titular El Clásico clash, and have opted to rest him for the match on Friday. With the World Cup on the horizon and every possible trophy out of reach for the Los Blancos, Tchouameni would be happy to miss out on Real Madrid vs Real Betis to continue his recovery in a better manner. Eduardo Camavinga is expected to start in his place against Los Verdiblancos.

When Will Tchouameni Return?

As of now, there has been no official confirmation regarding Tchouameni's return to action. Nevertheless, he is expected to be back in training soon before all-important clash against FC Barcelona in the league.
