Federico Valverde, after a clash with teammate Aurelien Tchouameni, has been seen again at Valdebebas but is training at low intensity.
After a few intense weeks in Valdebebas, one of the protagonists of the most talked-about drama of the spring has just returned to training. Federico Valverde has returned but has only been able to do part of the training session, that is, low-intensity exercises, or "No exercise that involved impacts or risk for him," they assure from Real Madrid.
The timelines of the concussion protocol must be strictly respected before allowing the player to fully reintegrate into training. Let us remember that when the altercation happened, and he injured his head, the player's recovery timeline was estimated between 10 and 14 days. Even so, his return sparked many reactions on social media when Real Madrid's official account on X posted photos from Friday's training session, in which the Uruguayan appears.
Let us remember that all of this was due to an altercation that occurred between Valverde and Tchouameni, who, after arguing heatedly in a training session last week, it is reported that the Frenchman pushed the Uruguayan, who fell to the ground, hitting his head and opening a wound, which left him very dizzy at the time, and they had to take him to the hospital.
All of this is a series of indiscretions that Real Madrid has lived and is living, and its president, Florentino Perez, has already given a press conference in which he commented that during his 26 years in office, he has always seen players fight, and that the serious thing about all of this is that it was leaked.
"It is not the first time that TWO PLAYERS have fought, I have been here 26 years, and they have always fought every year, it has no major significance, what is MORE serious is who leaked it, and we already know who," Florentino commented.
Now, the drama seems to have a new chapter, this one starring Mbappe and Arbeloa. We will have to wait to see how it progresses and try to guess how many weeks the coach will have left on the bench, because, honestly, the announcement of the new hire is likely closer than we all expect. Who will it be? No one knows for sure.
