Real Madrid are set to have a busy summer of signings, according to president Florentino Perez, but there has also been plenty of speculation about possible departures. Uruguayan midfielder Fede Valverde has been at the centre of debate following his clash with teammate Aurelien Tchouameni.
Valverde was fined €500 by Real Madrid for his role in the clash with Tchouameni, as was the Frenchman, but some sources have presented the Uruguayan as the initiator of the fight. Some reports even claim that parts of the dressing room have demanded the sale of Valverde this summer, believing that coexistence with him will be difficult in the future. Manchester United are also said to be monitoring Valverde's situation.
It has been reported by El Chiringuito, according to MD, that Paris Saint-Germain have contacted Valverde regarding a possible transfer this summer. This has been confirmed by Diario AS, who say that the French club have considered the possibility of signing him in the past. PSG's message to Valverde is that if leaving becomes an option - which it previously wasn't - then they are interested.
It is also said that Manchester City have also contacted Valverde's camp about a transfer in the past, although it is not clear whether they remain interested.
Valverde has previously stated that he would "have to be killed first" before leaving Real Madrid, and has always shown total commitment to the club. Only if his position becomes unbearable in the dressing room does it seem likely that he would consider leaving. For Los Blancos, too, it seems unlikely that disciplinary problems will not negatively affect his market value, given that he still has three years left on his contract.
