Liverpool are eyeing a summer move for Real Madrid midfielder Eduardo Camavinga, as long as they qualify for the Champions League, according to Anfield Watch.
The Reds have spent the last couple of transfer windows strengthening their attack and defence, with the midfield largely left untouched in terms of incomings.
However, with the performances of the likes of Ryan Gravenberch and Alexis Mac Allister not as consistent as they once were in what has been a miserable title defence from the Merseyside outfit, there could be changes there in the upcoming transfer window as Liverpool look to bounce back stronger next term.
Richard Hughes is said to have Frenchman Camavinga on his list to freshen up a key position for the club and Arne Slot.
Camavinga Part of Long Liverpool Shortlist

Liverpool will ideally want to sign a young but experienced midfielder who still has room to grow and improve should they make the move to Anfield, and Camavinga fits the bill.
According to Anfield Watch, the 23-year-old is one of the names on Hughes' midfield wishlist, alongside Crystal Palace's Adam Wharton, Nottingham Forest's Elliot Anderson, Warren Zaire-Emery, Kees Smit, Ayoubb Bouaddi and others.
While the report describes Camavinga, who has made 208 appearances for Real despite only turning 23 in November, as an unlikely option, they believe his recent comments about preferring to play as a No.6.
Rather than a '6', the France international is often utilised at the Bernabeu as a No.8, full-back or wing-back, with Aurelien Tchouameni having his ideal role nailed down in the XI.
Camavinga is a 'World-Class' Performer

While the former Rennes star has hinted at his frustration at not having a set position he consistently plays in, there is no doubt that Camavinga is a 'world-class' player given what he has achieved in the early years of his career.
While he is approaching 300 first-team club appearances, he also has 28 caps for France, and you'd imagine it would take a significant fee to prise him away from Real anytime soon.
Given he has a €1bn release clause written into his current contract, the Spanish giants are clearly in no rush to lose him either.
