WHAT HAPPENED? Barcelona and Real Madrid have been inundated with talent over the past 20 years and often capture the attention of the whole footballing world when they locked horns. Tchouameni is set to debut in the Clasico this weekend, and he has revealed his first memories of the epic fixture.

WHAT HE SAID: "My first memory of the Clasico was the celebration of Ronaldo asking for calm when scoring at the Camp Nou," Tchouameni admitted. Ronaldo pulled off the iconic celebration as he scored the winner in a tight match between the two in 2012.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: Frenchman Tchouameni has laid down the gauntlet ahead of the match. He said: "It's going to be a great battle against a good team. We have to do everything and show our quality to win. We are Real Madrid and we don't want to lose any games. We have good feelings and we want to continue like this."
