Real Madrid's Tchouaméni to Miss Champions League Final Due to Foot Injury

Real Madrid's holding midfielder, Aurélien Tchouaméni, is set to miss the Champions League final due to a foot injury. Coach Carlo Ancelotti confirmed that the 24-year-old French international will focus on recovering in time for the European Championship. His absence may see Eduardo Camavinga or Toni Kross playing deeper roles.

Real Madrid holding midfielder Aurélien Tchouaméni will miss the Champions League final because of a foot injury, coach Carlo Ancelotti said Friday.

The 24-year-old France international won't be available for the European title game against Borussia Dortmund on June 1 in London.

"He won't be ready for the final, he will focus on recovering in time for the European Championship" with France, Ancelotti said.

Tchouaméni sustained a stress fracture in his left foot in the second leg of the semifinal against Bayern Munich.

His absence means Ancelotti could play Eduardo Camavinga or Toni Kross in a deeper role as Madrid seeks to add to its record 14 European Cups.
