Arbeloa Slams Leak of Tchouameni-Valverde Clash as a ‘Betrayal to the Badge’
Real Madrid coach Álvaro Arbeloa has hit out at the source who leaked details of the training-ground altercation between Aurélien Tchouaméni and Fede Valverde. He praised the club for its swift and transparent handling of the incident, which left Valverde needing hospital treatment for a cut. Arbeloa also commended both players for accepting responsibility and apologising. However, the former defender warned that exposing private dressing-room matters is “a betrayal and an act of disloyalty to this badge”. He refused to publicly punish the players and insisted that internal issues must remain within the team.
