Transfer: Your confidence will be affected – Tchouameni warned against Real Madrid move

Monaco midfielder, Aurelien Tchouameni has been warned against leaving the club for Real Madrid this summer.

Tchouameni is close to completing a €100 million transfer to Real Madrid, but France legend, Bixente Lizarazu, fears his confidence level will be affected, adding that it represents a risk for the 22-year-old with the World Cup looming in November.

“The only thing that could perturb Tchouameni in the next months is the possible transfer to Real Madrid, if it happens,” Lizarazu told L’Equipe.

“In general, it takes between six months and a year to adapt to a new club, especially one in another county. If he does not have the playing time he expects, this could affect his confidence.

‘Dont know why you want to leave Liverpool ‘- Paul Merson warns Mane over decision

Arsenal legend, Merson has named Aaron Ramsdale as the club’s player of the season.

He also said that the England international has proved him wrong and made him eat his words.
Ramsdale joined the Gunners in a £25million transfer last summer from relegated Sheffield United.

He conceded a whopping 125 goals in the process and some, including Merson, were sceptical that the 24-year-old would be an improvement on then Arsenal No.1 Bernd Leno.

Last season, the goalkeeper ended up keeping 12 clean sheets in 31 games as Arsenal came agonisingly close to finishing top four.
