Liverpool are making a long-term bid to strengthen their midfield by targeting Real Madrid’s Eduardo Camavinga. TBR Football.
The Reds are said to be eyeing a move in 2026, when Camavinga’s situation could be more favourable.
With questions surrounding midfield depth at Anfield, this upcoming transfer saga stands out as one to watch in the period ahead.
Liverpool manager Arne Slot has been forced to rely heavily on a limited number of options in midfield this season.
Liverpool need more depth in midfield
Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai and Ryan Gravenberch have carried most of the load, with little reliable backup behind them.
Meanwhile, new signings such as Florian Wirtz have yet to make an impact in terms of goal contributions.
The resulting tension has prompted Liverpool’s hierarchy to seriously consider strengthening the engine room for the future.
Camavinga meets many requirements. At just 22 years old, he already boasts elite status, two Champions League titles with Real Madrid, and offers versatility and even experience.
However, in recent months he has seen his minutes limited. The emergence and form of Arda Guler and Aurélien Tchouaméni, coupled with Camavinga’s injuries, have complicated his position in Madrid’s rotation.
Although there is talk of a 2026 chase, Liverpool are already putting Camavinga on their shortlist alongside other midfield targets such as Carlos Baleba and Adam Wharton.
Reds should convince Eduardo Camavinga
However, many challenges still remain. Real Madrid may be reluctant to sell a player they still consider a project, especially if his status recovers.
Camavinga has strong roots in the Spanish capital, both on and off the pitch, making a move abroad emotionally difficult.
Liverpool will probably have to offer a convincing package, both financially and in terms of sporting vision, to convince him.
The Premier League giants lost Trent Alexander-Arnold to the Spanish giants this summer and now they are eyeing a chance to win one over Real Madrid next year.
