New details come to light regarding the violent conflict in Real Madrid training between Federico Valverde and Aurelien Tchouameni.
After tension started on Wednesday due to a harsh tackle, the situation deteriorated on Thursday when Valverde refused to shake the Frenchman's hand and retaliated with an tackle during training.
Coach Álvaro Arbeloa's attempt to calm the tensions by putting them on the same team failed, as the insults continued into the dugout where the players physically clashed.
According to what "RMC Sport" reports, as a result of the blows, Valverde suffered a fractured skull and lost consciousness for a few seconds, being urgently taken to the hospital by Arbeloa himself.
Real Madrid has announced that it has launched an investigation and will take serious disciplinary measures against both players.
This crisis comes at the worst possible moment, just a few days before "El Clasico", where Barcelona only needs one point to secure the championship title.
