Newcastle United has joined the race for Eduardo Camavinga, the young midfielder from Real Madrid, in a move that has also attracted the attention of Manchester United and Chelsea.

According to recent reports, St. James’ Park's club considers the 22-year-old player as a key reinforcement for their ambitious project led by the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia.

Newcastle United's Interest

After winning the Carabao Cup and finishing in the top five of the Premier League last season, Newcastle aims to establish itself in European competitions. The club made moves in the summer with additions like Jacob Ramsey, Aaron Ramsdale, and Nick Woltemade, now targeting elite players to maintain competitiveness.

Camavinga, with experience in 180 games with Madrid, four goals, and 10 assists, emerges as a defensive midfielder capable of providing stability and versatility. His adaptation to English football could significantly strengthen Eddie Howe's project, although the competitive context of the Premier League complicates the deal.

Camavinga's Profile and Performance

Since joining Madrid in 2021 from Rennes, Camavinga has won two Champions League titles and two LaLiga trophies, establishing himself as a crucial figure under Carlo Ancelotti's guidance. Capable of playing in the defensive midfield and as a left-back, he combines physicality, technique, and game vision, becoming a coveted asset in Europe.

At just 22 years old with 26 international caps for France, his potential remains immense. His recovery from recent injuries will see him back in action against Espanyol, reinforcing his role as a starter in Xabi Alonso's project.

Newcastle vs. Real Madrid Reality

While Newcastle and other English clubs show interest, Camavinga's stay at Real Madrid remains a priority for Xabi Alonso, who stated his intention to keep the player despite offers from the summer of 2025. The player's entourage has also confirmed his desire to continue at the white club, where he can compete for top honors that Newcastle does not yet guarantee.

Madrid values Camavinga at 80 million euros, a high price but consistent with his level and potential. In the medium term, his stay ensures balance and quality in the Merengues' midfield, which already boasts Tchouaméni, Valverde, and Bellingham as midfield cornerstones.

Although Newcastle represents an economical and competitive option for Camavinga, the title-winning experience and continuity in Real Madrid's project weigh more. His contractual situation, combined with Xabi Alonso's strategy, suggests his departure from the white club is unlikely in the short term, keeping him as a midfield reference for the upcoming seasons.
