Euardo Camavinga is the newest player and the last transfer of the summer window of Real Madrid. After completing the medicals, the news for the official success of the transfer was already announced by both teams. The official Real Madrid page wrote this afternoon: “Real Madrid C. F. and Stade Rennais F. C. have reached an agreement over the transfer of Eduardo Camavinga, who joins the club on a six-year deal, until 30 June 2027”. Meanwhile the French Club wrote: “Stade Rennais F.C. and Real Madrid have reached an agreement to transfer Eduardo Camavinga, an 18-year-old midfielder trained at the Red and Black Academy. Already a slight nostalgia, that of no longer seeing the child of the country roaming the banks of the Vilaine but a great pride, that of seeing him join one of the most prestigious clubs in the world”.
Camavinga (Cabinda, Angola, 10/11/2002) is now a Real Madrid player after the French international joined our club from Stade Rennais. After taking his first steps in the game with AGL-Drapeau-Fougères, he checked in at the Stade Rennais academy in the summer of 2013 and went on to make his Ligue 1 debut for the club’s first team in the 2018/19 season when, at the age of 16, he became the first player born in 2002 to feature in one of Europe’s major leagues.
Camavinga is a midfielder with fine physical attributes who is capable of playing anywhere across the middle third. He excels at breaking through the lines thanks to his explosive bursts of pace. He is a versatile player who is capable of operating all over the pitch and boasts a fine turn of pace and an impressive engine. He is a left-footed player and is strong in the tackle, whilst his short- and long-range passing and his dribbling skills are strong elements of his game. He earned his first cap for the senior French national team in September 2020 in the Nations League meeting against Croatia to become the youngest player to feature for Les Bleus since 1914. In terms of his career honours, he lifted the French Cup in 2019. While he was not selected for Euro 2020, he represented France at the Euro Under-21 Championship this summer.

-AGL-Drapeau Fougeres (2009-2013)

-Real Madrid (2021- )

Camavinga becomes Real's second signing of the summer after versatile Austria defender David Alaba, who moved to the Spanish capital following the end of his Bayern Munich contract. Real was also close to completing a move for Camavinga's France team-mate Kylian Mbappe from Paris St-Germain, but the two clubs have not been able to agree a fee for the 22-year-old, so the transfer windows ends with only two new signings for Real Madrid.
