Real close to finalising Tchouameni transfer as Liverpool watch

Real Madrid are reportedly closing in on the signing of Liverpool-linked midfielder Aurelien Tchoumeni

The Reds have been frequently credited with an interest in Tchouameni over the past couple of months, same as Real Madrid.

Now, according to Spanish news outlet Marca, the Champions  League victors are set to "imminently" confirm the signing of the France international, leaving Reds another blow coming back from their 1-0 defeat to the Spanish club in Paris.

It has been claimed that Real Madrid will pay £68million to Monaco for Tchouaméni's transfer.
