Yesterday I had an incident with a teammate during a training session. The fatigue from competition and the frustration made everything blown out of proportion.

In a normal locker room, these things can happen and are usually resolved internally without it becoming public knowledge. Obviously, there's someone behind this, spreading the story quickly, and with a season without titles where Real Madrid is always under scrutiny, everything gets magnified.

Today we had another disagreement. During the argument, I accidentally hit a table, causing a small cut on my forehead that required a routine visit to the hospital.

At no point did my teammate hit me, and I didn't hit him either, although I understand it's easier for you to believe we came to blows or that it was intentional, but that didn't happen.

I feel that my anger about the situation, my frustration at seeing some of us struggling to get through the end of the season, giving it our all, pushed me to the point of arguing with a teammate.

I'm sorry. I'm truly sorry because this situation hurts me, this moment we're going through hurts me. Real Madrid is one of the most important things in my life, and I can't be indifferent to it. The result is an accumulation of things that culminate in a senseless fight, damaging my image and leaving room for doubt that they'll fabricate stories, slander, and add fuel to the fire of an accident. I have no doubt that any disagreements we might have off the field cease to exist on the field, and if I have to defend it inside a stadium, I'll be the first.

I wasn't going to speak out until the end of the season. We were eliminated from the Champions League, and I kept my anger and resentment to myself. We've wasted another year, and I wasn't in a position to be posting on social media when the only face I had to show was on the field, and I feel that's what I did. That's why I'm the one who's most saddened and pained to be going through this situation that prevents me from playing the next match due to medical decisions. I always gave it my all, to the very end, and it hurts me more than anyone not to be able to do so. I am available to the club and my teammates to collaborate on any decision they deem necessary.

Thank you.

    “At no point did my teammate hit me”

    Yeah right

  2. How tf do you accidentally hit a table if you were only discussing?

    Were you measuring the angles of the table and couldn’t reach an agreement?

    Did you decide to measure the angles with your big forehead because you didn’t have a ruler at hand then slipped?

    would be funny if there was no actual fight or punch just the leaker made it up to make it look worse than it was

  4. No-Cherry-9670 on

    How did he hit the table and cut his head. Did he smash his head in the table?

    Straight bullshit, but I respect trying to save Tchouameni’s image on social media. What a shithshow.

  6. Expensive-Sail-8016 on

    Do you really expect us to believe you fell and hit your head for no reason at all?

  7. It’s all Perez’s fault

    If he got some defenders and replaced Kroos the team wouldn’t be shit.

    Since the team is shit they are fighting.

    tier 1 source flair is tickling me a bit

    this is uncharacteristically bold from him tbh. also perhaps hinting at a mole in the club? who woulda thunk. i hope whatever happened they’re able to sort it out even if just for the sake of optics. i’m over this situation already

    Cooked Mbappe😭😭

  10. So he fell by himself and got a small cut but cant play on the weekend due to medical reasons? Make it make sense

    The lad had forgotten that the club had already launched disciplinary proceedings

    Statement starts out with him making excuses for his behavior instead of takign responsibility: someone leaked it and thats why I was mad.

    Dude is the furthest thing from a captain i think I have ever seen.

  13. Worried-Antelope778 on

    So he couldnt be on social media after the losses but quick to post after the wins foh, not only that but when he has he ever gone to the media after a loss. Terrible captain

  14. I was reading this post on reddit and suddenly I accidentally hit my head against the table. Routine event.

  15. No-Obligation1336 on

    They think people are dumb enough to buy these PR statements, man FOH.

  16. Own-Ranger-756 on

    clearly trying to cover it up but the leaker could be overexaggerating it

  17. Quitetheoddone on

    So he blames the media for blowing it out of proportion and tries to tell the world it’s not a big deal?

    Dude you’re the fucking captain of Real Madrid, and one of the most consistently top midfielders in the world.

    I would have expected more authority in his writing, more conviction, more passion and transparency, and less sympathy farming.

  18. SafeExcitement9987 on

    The leaker is either Carvajal, Ceballos or Mbappe. Why Mbappe you may ask? So that Media can forget about the whole Signature thing created by Deedwazz on Twitter lol.

  19. Valverde is full of shit at this point seems like it was him who started and blew the issue up.
    At least his wife will defend him and speak for him.
    This man is the captain but has been a pathetic excuse of captain alongside carvajal (only highlight this season is fighting with yamal), vini.

    Remember that valverde, Bellingham and vini are the 3 main rats who wanted xabi out and did all the crying until it happened

    A French account showed a screenrecording of tchouameni talking to him about the incident. Which thus proves Fede right that Tchouameni is leaking to the media.
