Real Madrid star is Europe’s most progressive passer in 2024/25 | OneFootball

A head-turning statistic, highlighting the impact made by a leading member of the midfield ranks at La Liga giants Real Madrid across the season to date, has on Monday come to the fore.

The Blancos star at the heart of the stat in question? Aurélien Tchouaméni.

France international Tchouaméni, for his part, has played a key role for Spanish champions Real over the early weeks of the new term.

With Toni Kroos having moved on, and Eduardo Camavinga sidelined, the former AS Monaco man has stood as an ever-present at the base of Carlo Ancelotti’s midfield.

All told, across Los Blancos’ five outings in all competitions, Tchouaméni has been afforded five starts.

And, along the way, the 24-year-old has proven himself an absolutely crucial figure in driving his teammates forward.

As revealed by statisticians WhoScored, Tchouaméni, across the 2024/25 term to date, has been responsible for more forward passes than any other midfielder in Europe’s top-five leagues (98).
