Manchester United sets its sights on Real Madrid midfielder Eduardo Camavinga, though he clings to his desire to stay at the Spanish club.
Despite having been left aside to play with the French national team in this 2026 World Cup and despite his performance dropping considerably last season, Real Madrid's defensive midfielder, Eduardo Camavinga, still has big candidates going after him.
The Frenchman has remained on the list of the Spanish team's players who have been most in doubt about continuing to wear the white shirt, and with the summer market in full swing, once again, Camavinga, 23, enters the list.
His future with Los Merengues has been in doubt for more than a season, and with the club unsure what to do with him, a new candidate to sign him this summer has emerged: Manchester United.
Fabrizio Romano, a journalist specializing in transfers, reported a couple of days ago that Manchester United is looking for a midfielder, especially one with a defensive profile.
The journalist has also commented that the Red Devils have already held talks with some players, but that one of the options considered internally is Camavinga.
Eduardo, in his best moments of performance, is a player who helps a lot in defense, especially when it comes to running and playing with intensity, exactly the ideal profile for the squad under the command of coach Michael Carrick.
However, unfortunately for United, Camavinga on repeated occasions has expressed his desire not to leave Real Madrid, a statement he reiterated, according to Romano.
The Frenchman wants to leave behind the ups and downs of past seasons and continue to be part of the white club, above all, earn the trust of the new coach, the Portuguese Jose Mourinho.
Apparently, according to the media, Real Madrid is open to selling him, but United's desire to sign him cannot be taken into account if the midfielder remains adamant about not leaving.
Diario AS journalist Ruben Martin has assured that the white club is aware of the candidates interested in Camavinga and will not let him go for a low price, much less sell him off cheaply.
A couple of weeks ago, the player was also linked to Inter Milan and PSG, and it was also said that Real Madrid was considering the option of offering Camavinga to Manchester City, but this rumor ended up being just another one of the bunch, so everything remains a mystery. With the Frenchman's will to stay, the club's options are reduced.
For now, Eduardo Camavinga and his teammates will continue training under Mourinho's tutelage. Real Madrid's next match will be a friendly against ACF Fiorentina on Aug. 1, where perhaps we will see the young footballer as a starter.
