Liverpool failed to make the desired impact at the start of the Premier League with their pre-season signings, and Arne Slot's four consecutive defeats (the Reds' worst streak in over ten years) seem to have created a sense of urgency for new reinforcements in January.
Information released by the Spanish press in recent hours indicates that Liverpool is preparing an offer of around €80 million to sign Real Madrid midfielder Eduardo Camavinga, considering that the Frenchman's future at the current LaLiga runners-up has become a topic of debate, as he has fallen to a secondary position under coach Xabi Alonso and has not been a regular starter.
Eduardo Camavinga's future at Real Madrid is uncertain
Camavinga is reflecting on his next career moves, and Liverpool is closely monitoring the situation. The Merseyside club is considering submitting an offer close to €80 million in the winter transfer window to secure the services of the versatile Real Madrid player.
The french star made his name in professional football at Stade Rennais FC before transferring to Real Madrid in the summer of 2021. At 22, the Frenchman had been an important part of the first team, helping the Spanish club win two Champions Leagues and La Liga titles. However, under Xabi Alonso's management, his participation has declined: since returning from injury, he has started only one league game and accumulated just 141 minutes in six appearances.
Camavinga's contract with Real Madrid runs until the summer of 2029, but the current situation has raised a lot of speculation about his future. Liverpool are said to be very interested, valuing the player at around €80 million and believing that his profile (able to play as a central midfielder, more defensively, or even as a left-back) fits well into Arne Slot's plans.
