According to reports, Madrid is looking for a deal starting at €50 million (£43 million) – an impressive offer for one of Europe’s premier midfielders.
The appeal for Liverpool to sign Camavinga is clear. As a world-class No. 6, he can also play as a No. 8 and even step in at left-back when needed. He is recognized as one of the best progressive passers among Europe’s elite leagues.
Camavinga would not only support Ryan Gravenberch but could also serve as an improvement over Alexis Mac Allister.
