Liverpool are reportedly leading the race for Eduardo Camavinga amid reports of talks for the midfielder, as his Real Madrid future looks bleak.
According to Caught Offside, Liverpool are reportedly leading the race for the signature of Eduardo Camavinga, as his Real Madrid future has been thrown into some doubt. Chelsea are also keen, but the Merseysiders could have an edge as they could accelerate the pursuit ahead of the summer.
Eduardo Camavinga’s future is being thrown into some level of doubt following his diminished role at the Santiago Bernabeu. Current manager Álvaro Arbeloa has preferred a different type of midfield dynamic that views the Frenchman as a rotational option rather than the status of a starter he enjoyed under previous managers.
Real Madrid are reportedly open to selling him for as low as €50 million, although this stance might change, given the rapid interest in the market. The Frenchman is a coveted target for some of the Premier League heavyweights, with the likes of Liverpool interested in the midfielder.
Arne Slot’s side have been searching for a strong midfielder for the better part of two years now, and could angle a move for the €50 million-rated Real Madrid utility man. Reports state they are in talks for the Frenchman as things stand, with the player himself seeking information about a prospective move to Anfield.
Liverpool could open talks with Real Madrid for the signing of the midfielder, although the reported price point might drastically change. Liverpool could face challenges in the pursuit, as there is also competition from clubs like Chelsea.
Why are Real Madrid planning a Camavinga sale?
Real Madrid are seeking a new midfielder with a different profile to that of someone like Camavinga, as they have reportedly considered an exchange with Chelsea involving the Frenchman and Enzo Fernández. The Blues are keen on the Frenchman, but they might not be willing to entertain proposals involving the Argentine.
Real Madrid are clearly looking at a different midfield option, which could see the likes of Liverpool and Chelsea get a break in their pursuit of the Frenchman. Only the price point mentioned in the story is a bit questionable, but there is a strong possibility of an exit from the Bernabeu.
