Liverpool have reportedly been boosted in their efforts to sign Real Madrid midfielder Eduardo Camavinga this summer, with the Frenchman potentially costing £86.2m. It is claimed that the Spanish giants “appear to be going in a different direction in the summer, with a midfield revamp on the horizon.” It remains to be seen how much Camavinga will cost, with as much as £86.2m touted in the past, but reporter Matteo Morreto has said: “He’s not untouchable; there are already Premier League clubs interested in him.

For now, Real Madrid hasn’t set a price, but it’s clear they don’t want to go below €50 million (£43.1m).” Eduardo Camavinga could aid Liverpool’s toiling midfield Liverpool’s midfield has been an issue this season, with Ryan Gravenberch struggling to match last season’s brilliance and Alexis Mac Allister looking like a long way from the player he once was. In Camavinga, the Reds could have a wonderful option to bring in, with the Champions League-winning ace once lauded by former manager Carlo Ancelotti: “I want to highlight Camavinga’s performance tonight, as he was spectacular.” The France international is such an impressive footballer, despite his lack of minutes at Madrid this season, and it is easy to forget how young he still is because of how long he has been around.

Camavinga can even do a good job at left-back, which is an added string to his bow, so barring a potentially huge price tag – even that is up in the air – there is very little not to like about the idea of Liverpool snapping him up at the end of the season.
