What's next for Valverde at Real Madrid?

Real Madrid midfielder Federico Valverde had a difficult last season. According to various sources, he was at the center of several conflicts within the team.

Media reports suggest that the player had disagreements with former head coach Xabi Alonso and recently had a confrontation with Aurelien Tchuameni during a training session.

There have also been reports of problems between Valverde and Uruguay national team coach Marcelo Bielsa, which allegedly affected the team's performance at the World Cup.

However, according to sources, Real Madrid's management has no plans to make significant changes to Valverde's status within the team. Specifically, the club does not intend to strip him of his captaincy.

Next season, the Uruguayan player will continue to be one of the leaders of the Madrid team.

As previously reported, Jose Mourinho also sees Valverde as a key figure in his plans. The coach considers him a central midfielder who organizes the team's game and is one of the main players in his project.
