Race to sign Aurelien Tchouameni takes a twist as 'Real Madrid are put off by Monaco's asking price of £60m' - leaving Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool among the suitors left to fight it out for his signature

Real Madrid have been put off by Monaco's £60million asking price of midfield starlet Aurelien Tchouameni, leaving Man United, Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool to scrap for his signature, according to reports.

Tchouameni is one of the most coveted young talents in Europe after bursting onto the scene with the Ligue 1 side in 2019, and is now an indispensible member of the team - playing 47 times this season.

His performances in the middle of the park have helped lift Monaco to fourth place in the French top flight and his side still have a chance to finish third and seal a place in the Champions League with three games remaining, as they battle with Rennes.
