With Jose Mourinho reportedly poised to return as manager for the 2025-26 season, Real Madrid is looking to strengthen their midfield, potentially targeting Rodri Hernandez. If a deal for Rodri materializes with Manchester City, it could pave the way for Eduardo Camavinga’s departure.
Camavinga’s 2025-26 season has been challenging, marked by injuries and a decline in his consistent impact on the pitch even when fit. This has fueled speculation about his future at the club.
Sources indicate that Real Madrid’s hierarchy is open to selling Camavinga during the summer transfer window, provided a substantial offer is received. The asking price has reportedly been set at €80 million.
The club anticipates a busy transfer period, with plans to pursue multiple high-profile signings to address various areas of the squad ahead of the 2026-27 season. The potential sale of Camavinga could provide significant funds to facilitate these ambitions, though his willingness to move remains uncertain.
Mourinho to have final say on Camavinga’s future
Ultimately, Jose Mourinho will have the decisive voice regarding Camavinga’s fate. It’s expected that he would utilize the French international more extensively than the previous management, likely prioritizing established players like Camavinga over emerging talents such as Thiago Pitarch.
The situation remains fluid, with Camavinga having potential avenues for transfer. Premier League clubs like Liverpool and Chelsea have been linked with the midfielder and are financially capable of meeting Real Madrid’s €80 million valuation.
