A bombshell hit Real Madrid this week with the news that Federico Valverde had to be hospitalized after a training ground fight with teammate Aurélien Tchouaméni. Amid a deeply frustrating season marked by off-the-field incidents, the sensational reports marked a new low for Madrid who are set for successive seasons without a major trophy.
