The crisis is deep within Real Madrid. In recent days, the atmosphere has become even more tense, culminating in a serious incident in the locker room this Thursday between Aurélien Tchouaméni and Federico Valverde. The Uruguayan midfielder was even taken to the hospital.

Tensions have escalated dramatically at Real Madrid in recent hours. With El Clásico taking place on Sunday at the Camp Nou and potentially crowning their arch-rivals, Barcelona, as Spanish champions, the club appears to have descended into chaos. As reported by Marca , a violent incident occurred in the Madrid dressing room on Thursday, on the sidelines of the day's training session, involving Aurélien Tchouaméni and Federico Valverde.

It all started the day before. On Wednesday, the Spanish press reported a heated altercation between the two men: during the training session, the Frenchman accidentally struck his teammate. Valverde didn't take it well and wanted to retaliate. After the session, the two men argued in the locker room. The altercation, however, remained verbal.

Another incident occurred this Thursday.

But on Thursday, tensions escalated. First, Valverde reportedly refused to shake his teammate's hand, according to the Spanish press. During the day's training session, the Uruguayan midfielder tripped Tchouaméni. In the following drill, Alvaro Arbeloa attempted to defuse the situation by placing the two men on the same team. This did not have the desired effect, as the two players continued their mutual insults.

After training, the players returned to the locker room. A fight broke out between Aurélien Tchouaméni and Federico Valverde. A scuffle ensued with other players trying to separate the two men. According to our information, Valverde fell, cut his head, and lost consciousness for a few seconds. He was then taken to the hospital. According to the Spanish press, Arbeloa went with him.

The club declined to comment, as did the two players and their respective representatives. But the matter will not end there. Real Madrid fully intends to impose sanctions on both men as part of a disciplinary procedure.
