Carlo Ancelotti speaks on Aurelien Tchouameni position and Raul Asencio ahead of Athletic Club clash

Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has refused to commit to playing Aurelien Tchouameni in one position or another when he returns from injury. Los Blancos return to action against Athletic Club at San Mames on Wedensday night, and the Italian is slowly getting players back from injury following the return of Rodrygo Goes on Sunday.

Ancelotti confirmed to the press that Tchouameni was good to go in Bilbao, after returning to full training this week. He had been out for all of November due to an ankle problem.

“Tchouameni is fine, he trained well, he has recovered well, he is ready to play from minute one. We will see tomorrow where I play him.”

"It's a technical decision, I have all the confidence in the world in a player we have won two #UCL's with. Fran has brought a lot in attack in these games, he's been solid in defence, and has taken advantage of his opportunity."
