In today’s world, versatility is one of the most-needed qualities in football. Players should not stick to one position and play in various positions. Whether it be a striker, midfielder, or defender, every player needs to be versatile. Similarly, the French footballer Aurelien Tchouameni is one of them. He has played at various positions in the midfield as well as defense. Recently, his club manager, Carlo Ancelotti, praised him.
The Real Madrid manager, Carlo Ancelotti, said:
“Tchouamenu has all the qualities to be one of the best center-backs around.”
He also concluded by saying, “I am sure he will get angry about this, but he is amazing as a center back! He can play as a midfielder, and as a defender, he is great.”
This is one of the main reasons why Ancelotti has trusted him, and he is one of the star players in Real Madrid’s lineup. Tchouamenu joined Real Madrid in 2022 and always started for the club. He has rarely missed a game unless he is injured. He is one of the biggest utilities for Madrid, and his stay at the club will make their midfield and defense much stronger.
