L’Équipe report today that Spanish side Real Madrid have initiated opening contacts with the entourage of French youth international and 17-year-old Rennes midfielder Eduardo Camavinga.
Camavinga, who this summer signed a new contract with Rennes until 2022, is currently contracted to a club who has no intention of selling him next summer, although they privately admit that a nine-figure proposal would be impossible to turn down (upwards of €100m).
Los Blancos have yet to formally approach the Ligue 1 side about negotiations, but they and the rest of Europe’s giants will surely follow.
