What happened. Liverpool's long-standing interest in Aurelien Tchouameni has resurfaced, but a move now looks considerably harder than a few years ago. The 26-year-old is settled at Real Madrid, recently committed until 2031 and remains in Jose Mourinho's midfield plans.

• Tchouameni is now established as a key figure at Real Madrid.
• He recently signed a deal keeping him at the club until 2031.
• Jose Mourinho still counts on him in midfield.

Liverpool may need to look elsewhere, with Madrid's long contract and Mourinho's plans blocking any approach.
