Eduardo Camavinga is on Manchester United's radar after failing to progress as expected at Real Madrid. The Frenchman was not called up for the World Cup and needs regular playing time.

In Real Madrid’s squad, there are very high-level players, and although some have seen their performance and value drop in recent seasons, they are still highly regarded by various European clubs. An example is Eduardo Camavinga, who will turn 24 in November. He is still very young and has significant room for improvement. For this reason, Manchester United is thinking of him for its project.

“Manchester United has shown interest in Real Madrid midfielder Eduardo Camavinga. He is no longer an untouchable player for the club,” Nicolo Schira wrote on his X account. However, the cited journalist has not said anything about the player's will, who, at the moment, has only the idea of continuing to play for Real Madrid, per the independent outlet Defensa Central. This is something that makes things difficult for the merengue club, but it is respected because he has a contract until 2029.

Although the French player is not contemplating leaving Real Madrid at the moment, that does not mean he cannot change his mind in a few weeks. If the player sees another midfielder arrive and, with Mourinho, he is not going to have many chances to play regularly, it would not be out of the question for him to consider leaving. In addition, they are willing to offer him a very interesting contract in the Premier League.

Nobody doubts the player's physical and technical qualities, but he has not progressed as expected over the years at the white club. This creates quite a few doubts about his growth over the coming seasons. And Real Madrid are not the only ones who hold this view, because in the French national team they see him the same way, which is why he was not called up for the World Cup. He has to improve a lot if he wants to be important again.

We will see what Jose Mourinho thinks and how he manages the situation, because even if he does not count on him, it is not in his interest to have a player against him in the locker room as soon as he arrives. He prefers to reach all the players. That does not mean he will not be honest, but he will not treat Camavinga badly if, after telling him he is not going to be important to him, he still wants to stay. In the end, he has a contract signed for 3 more years, and he is within his rights to fulfill it.
