The agent of Monaco star Aurelien Tchouameni has spoken out, amid claims of an agreement being put in place between his client and Spanish giants Real Madrid.
For those not aware, speculation in the media late last week pointed towards Los Blancos making altogether significant headway in their pursuit of midfielder Tchouameni.
In fact, Ramon Alvarez of Marca went as far as to claim that an agreement over the personal terms of a contract had been struck between the two parties ahead of the summer, with a transfer with the potential to rise to 65 million euros therefore inching towards completion:
In turn, it came as little surprise when, during an interview with Le Parisien this weekend, the Frenchman's representative was drawn on such claims.
In a boost for Tchouameni's countless other suitors, though, an agreement of any form with Real Madrid was swiftly denied, with the 22-year-old's future, as a result, remaining up in the air ahead of the summer transfer window.

The fresh chatter surrounding Tchouameni's prospects at club level of course comes fresh on the back of the youngster's latest starring display on the international stage.
After being afforded a starting berth at the heart of Didier Deschamps' France engine room versus Cote d'Ivoire on Friday night, the Monaco man stole the show, bagging Man of the Match honours and even chipping in with the game's winning goal deep into injury time:
