Liverpool Transfer News: Spanish outlet Fichajes reports that Real Madrid president Florentino Perez wants to raise about €150 million from player sales this summer. Eduardo Camavinga’s name keeps coming up as a likely departure from the Bernabeu. The French midfielder has struggled to keep a regular starting spot during a tough season. Fichajes also names Brahim Diaz and goalkeeper Andriy Lunin as potential sales. The club want to fund new signings by offloading fringe squad members.
Liverpool Transfer News: Liverpool receive boost in their interest for Eduardo Camavinga
Camavinga moved to Madrid from Rennes in 2021. Since then, he has made 211 appearances for Los Blancos. However, injuries and heavy competition for places have limited his impact. The 23-year-old France international signed a new deal in November 2023. That contract runs until June 2029. Despite that, Madrid’s plans have shifted. Marca confirms that Real Madrid will listen to offers for him this summer. Several Premier League clubs are already showing interest.
Liverpool have made fresh contact with Camavinga’s camp. Chelsea are also in the race. Both clubs are talking to the player’s agents. Journalist Matteo Moretto reported via Marca that Madrid haven’t set a hard price. However, they will not accept any bids below €50 million. FootballTransfers values Camavinga between €49.2 million and €60.2 million. Transfermarkt lists his market value at €50 million. Manchester United are also looking closely at him. They see him as the perfect replacement for Casemiro.
Would Liverpool get the best of Camavinga, or a player still finding his way?
This is the real point of interest. Camavinga hasn’t quite settled at Real Madrid. He usually plays as a utility man because he is versatile. He hasn’t mastered one specific role, even after five seasons. The Frenchman has great traits. He carries the ball well from deep, presses hard, and has a brilliant left foot. He can play almost anywhere in midfield. These skills made Camavinga a top European prospect, but the downsides are clear. He lacks the tactical discipline a top-level central midfielder needs. Injuries also break his rhythm whenever he finds form.

Camavinga insists on playing Champions League football. He has already won the trophy twice. This creates a problem for Liverpool. They currently sit fifth in the Premier League, five points behind the top four. Most reports ignore this detail. Being “leaders” in the race matters little if Liverpool can’t offer top-tier European games. Chelsea face similar uncertainty. The fight for his signature will be intense once Madrid opens the door.
I believe Camavinga will leave Madrid this summer. The club need cash and a squad refresh. He just doesn’t fit the pecking order anymore. However, as per the latest Liverpool Transfer News, the Reds will only get him if they finish in the top four by May. If they miss out, expect a twist. United or a big European club will likely step in. At €50-60 million, he is a fair deal for a 23-year-old with 13 trophies. Any buyer is paying for his potential as much as his current stats.
