height=\"333\"\/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>Interestingly, Madrid acquired Tchouameni in 2022 before Casemiro departed for Man United, and with the former AS Monaco midfielder doing a very good job at the Bernabeu in the last few years, he has emerged as one of the world\u2019s best number sixes.<\/p>\n<p>Tchouameni is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.transfermarkt.com\/aurelien-tchouameni\/profil\/spieler\/413112\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">valued at \u00a365 million on Transfermarkt<\/a> and has a contract valid with the La Liga giants until June 2028, so United could potentially test the waters over his signing during the summer to gauge is availability and interest.<\/p>\n<h2>Tchouameni move not a strong possibility<\/h2>\n<p>Aurelien Tchouameni would be a solid signing for Manchester United and very crucially, having replaced Casemiro at Real Madrid as well, he would be aware of what is expected of him in order to fill into the South American\u2019s shoes.<\/p>\n<p>Having said that, his strong defensive attributes including an intelligent reading of the game to make tackles and interceptions, strong aerial abilities and composure on the ball make him a well-rounded player, worthy of a move to Old Trafford.<\/p>\n<p>The 26-year-old is also capable of playing as a central defender, so his versatility is another asset, although moving away from Real Madrid may not be on his mind at the moment considering his regular role at the club.<\/p>\n<p>Los Blancos could also quote a lofty price tag for their key man, so unless United are prepared to break the bank for Tchouameni\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/football-talk.co.uk\/tag\/transfer-rumours\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Transfer rumours\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">transfer<\/a>, it is an unlikely proposition for this
