Tension continues at Real Madrid, although what happened this morning at Valdebebas has crossed the club's limits, with the direct involvement of Florentino Pérez in resolving the issue. Fede Valverde ended up going to the hospital after an argument with Aurelien Tchouaméni, as reported by Marca and confirmed by this newspaper. The Uruguayan, according to information from EL MUNDO, sustained a cut from the confrontation and is now back home, while the Madrid board is considering what actions to take.

The club plans to open a disciplinary proceeding against both players, who also had a clash yesterday. At that time, Valdebebas stated that it was "football-related matters", "an altercation after a play", and that it did not escalate further, ending the confrontation in the locker room and "making amends", as sources from the white team claim.

However, this Thursday, the situation has escalated. Tchouaméni and Valverde, who have been in the starting lineup on numerous occasions in recent years, have clashed again, leading to the Uruguayan ending up in the hospital with a cut. According to sources, both players have had a strained relationship for some time.

The club has decided to urgently gather all players in the Valdebebas locker room, with the direct involvement of Florentino and José Ángel Sánchez to put an end to the increasing tension of recent weeks.
