Real Madridhave reportedly put Eduardo Camavinga on their transfer list ahead of the summer window. Los Blancos no longer think of the French midfielder as untouchable because he hasn’t improved as expected since Luka Modrić, Toni Kroos, and Casemiro left. It is said that he is now more likely to leave Real Madrid than stay, with the Premier League being the most likely place he will go.
The 23-year-old is in his fifth season at the Santiago Bernabeu. He came from Stade Rennais in a €31 million deal in 2021.His most recent mistake in the 2-1 loss to Mallorca brought attention back to the Frenchman, who is no longer a key player for manager Álvaro Arbeloa. According to reports, the Spaniard trusts Aurelien Tchouameni and Thiago Pitarch more in the most important times.

Chelsea are said to be interested in a possible move and are keeping an eye on his situation in case a deal comes up. Reports say that both Chelsea and Manchester United have told Real Madrid that they are willing to make offers of up to €70 million for the midfielder, who can play in many positions. Liverpoolhave also been in touch with the player’s camp, having had two separate talks with his team.
Real Madrid, on the other hand, won’t think twice about selling the player if they get a good enough offer. However, selling Camavinga is not a top priority for the club. Reports say that Camavinga is torn between staying with the team or listening to offers from other teams. If he decides he wants to leave, he will be made available.
Why Chelsea’s Pursuit of Camavinga Could Intensify This Summer
Chelsea’s midfield is in a state of chaos right now, which could speed up their interest in Camavinga. Head coach Liam Rosenior confirmed that star midfielder Enzo Fernandez was suspended for two games after saying he wanted to live in Madrid, during the international break.
Chelsea don’t think Fernandez is untouchable, and the team are already looking for a new midfielder to sign this summer. Real Madrid are actively going after Fernandez and Rodri from Manchester City to strengthen their midfield.
If Fernández leaves Stamford Bridge, Chelsea will need a world-class player to play alongside Moises Caicedo in the centre of the pitch. If the Blues can meet Real Madrid’s asking price, Camavinga, who has a contract with the club until 2029, could be a great fit. In the next few weeks, it will be very important to see if Chelsea can turn their interest into a real move.
