The Real Madrid star provides a positive injury update with the Champions League final in mind

Earlier this week, it was revealed that Aurelien Tchouameni had picked up a foot injury during the win over Bayern Munich on Wednesday. His expected layoff is 3-4 weeks, which would be cast doubt on his involvement in the Champions League final.

Tchouameni has still featured for Real Madrid this season, apart from a six-week spell between October and December when he was sidelined with an injury to the same foot that he injured again. His absence against Borussia Dortmund on June 1 would be a big blow, although he himself expects to be available for the showpiece event at Wembley Stadium, as he told Radio MARCA ( away Brand).

“I think I'll make it to the finals.”

Tchouameni was seen with a protective boot and crutch during Real Madrid On Sunday, the celebration of the victory of the League title, which would have raised more fear of his unavailability for the final of the Champions League. He will be desperate to play a part in London, and Ancelotti will also be keen to have him available.
