Today, a former midfielder from La Liga giants Barcelona has publicly supported Real Madrid star Eduardo Camavinga, indicating that the Frenchman is set to play a more significant role for Real Madrid next season.
Camavinga’s role last season saw him frequently alternating between the starting XI and the bench. He started in 21 of Real Madrid’s La Liga matches and nine of their 13 Champions League fixtures. This rotation occurred amidst intense competition for midfield positions at the Santiago Bernabéu.
The recent retirement of Toni Kroos, a legendary figure in Real Madrid’s midfield, has opened up opportunities for other players in Carlo Ancelotti’s squad. Among those poised to capitalize on these newfound minutes is Camavinga, who many believe is ready to step up.
Cesc Fàbregas, a former standout for both Arsenal and Barcelona and now a coach at Serie A-bound Como, has voiced his support for Camavinga.
In an interview with Defensa Central, Fàbregas shared his insights on Real Madrid’s midfield situation and expressed his belief in Camavinga’s potential. He stated, “I think Camavinga will be a starter for Real Madrid next season.”
Fàbregas’s endorsement highlights the anticipation surrounding Camavinga’s future at Real Madrid. The French midfielder, known for his versatility and dynamic playing style, has already shown glimpses of his talent.
With Kroos’s departure, Camavinga has a golden opportunity to cement his place in the starting lineup and further develop his skills on one of the world’s biggest football stages.
Eduardo Camavinga joined Real Madrid from Rennes in the summer of 2021, and since then, he has been gradually integrated into the team.
His performances have drawn praise for his ability to control the game, break up opposition plays, and contribute both defensively and offensively. Despite his youth, Camavinga has demonstrated maturity and composure, qualities that will serve him well as he takes on more responsibility in the coming season.
The upcoming season is poised to be a pivotal one for Camavinga as he transitions from a promising talent to a central figure in Real Madrid’s midfield.
The club’s supporters and management have high expectations for the young Frenchman, and he appears ready to meet those expectations head-on. With the backing of influential figures like Fàbregas and the departure of a stalwart like Kroos, the stage is set for Camavinga to shine.
