At the beginning of the second half of the match between Real Madrid and Getafe away at the Estadio Coliseum on April 23, Eduardo Camavinga had to go off with an injury that will keep him out for the rest of the season.
That, along with uncertainty surrounding manager Carso Ancelotti in the Spanish capital, Paris Saint-Germain want to take advantage of an offer that will be hard to refuse.

PSG slept on the hour when Real Madrid signed the French midfielder from Rennes in 2021 for just €30 million. The idea then was that Eduardo Camavinga, who was only 19 years old at the time, would not get enough space in the star-studded French team. Manager Luis Enrique, who has joined later, points to it as one of his predecessors’ biggest mistakes.
Paris Saint-Germain will make a bid of €80 million. They want to cover potential departures in midfield with a young, dominant and internationally promising profile, with the Frenchman at the top of the list.
Despite his young age, Camavinga has established himself as an important piece in Real Madrid’s style of play since his arrival in 2021. With his inexhaustible energy, tactical literacy and ability to adapt to different positions, he has won the trust of the coaching staff and the admiration of his fans.
Paris is following his situation closely. PSG, who are looking to reorganize their squad after the departure of some key players and a possible exit for Fabián Ruiz, see the Real Madrid player as a natural leader for the midfield. But the answer from Real Madrid has been clear: the Camavinga is not for sale.
Real Madrid secured the player with a contract extension until 2029 and a €1 billion buyout clause. The sports management considers him a cornerstone of the future project. Despite growing rumours and more interested parties, the attitude in Valdebebas is unwavering: Camavinga will not leave the club, not even for a giant offer from the Parc des Princes.
