Eduardo Camavinga is a French professional footballer who plays as a central midfielder for Spanish club Real Madrid and the France national team.

Eduardo Camavinga is known for his versatility, since he can play as a defensive midfielder or even a left-back. He is widely considered one of the most promising young talents in world football.

Camavinga joined Real Madrid in August 2021 from French club Stade Rennais. Despite his young age, he quickly established himself as a key player in the team's midfield rotation. His composure, technical ability, and impressive defensive work rate have made him a fan favourite.

Camavinga has already amassed a remarkable collection of trophies in his short career, particularly with Real Madrid. With Real Madrid, he has won the UEFA Champions League twice (2021–22 and 2023–24), La Liga, Copa del Rey, UEFA Super Cup, and the Spanish Super Cup. He also won the FIFA Club World Cup in 2022.

Reports suggest that the Manchester United hierarchy is considering a bid of nearly €80 million for Camavinga, who is valued in a similar range by Real Madrid.

Los Blancos would only consider the 22-year-old's departure if their demands are met and have informed interested parties through intermediaries that this is the figure they are seeking.

Camavinga is still recovering from an ankle problem that caused him to miss last night's season opener against Osasuna. The French international has suffered five injuries over the last 12 months, limiting him to just 19 La Liga appearances last season, only 11 of which were starts.

Xabi Alonso still sees the Frenchman as a key player in his plans, although his recurring injuries have raised concerns among the Real Madrid fanbase. However, should a suitable offer arrive, his departure from the Santiago Bernabéu is not out of the question.

Manchester United have also shown interest in Brighton's Carlos Baleba and Crystal Palace's Adam Wharton, but for now, their respective clubs are refusing to part ways with the players.
