- Tchouameni suffered injury against Bayern
- Frenchman could miss out on playing Champions League final
- Midfielder remains hopeful of playing at Wembley
WHAT HAPPENED?
The midfielder suffered a stress injury during Real Madrid’s Champions League semi-final second-leg clash against Bayern Munich earlier this month and has remained out of action since then. Now Marca reports that the Tchouameni could miss out on playing at Wembley on June 1 as he faces a race against time to fully recover ahead of the Borussia Dortmund clash.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
The report further claims that the France international suffered breakage of a third metatarsal on his left foot which will likely keep him away from the grand finale. Last week, the player claimed that he was doing everything he possibly could to regain fitness and remained optimistic about making it to Carlo Ancelotti’s travelling squad.

The 24-year-old has been an important part of Los Blancos’ squad this season which won the Spanish Super Cup and La Liga titles and are just a step away from registering a record-extending 15th Champions League title win.
WHAT NEXT FOR REAL MADRID?
The newly crowned Spanish champions will play their final league game of the season on Saturday as they take on Real Betis at Santiago Bernabeu.
