Real Madrid rejected a 35M sale

Eduardo Camavinga, a 23-year-old midfielder, received an offer of 35 million euros from Galatasaray during the final stretch of the Real Madrid's transfer market. However, the Madrid team immediately rejected the proposal. The Frenchman, with a contract until 2029, will continue this season in LaLiga after also stating his intention to stay at the Santiago Bernabéu.

The move by the Turkish team came when the player's future was still uncertain in the market. Real Madrid had heard possible scenarios for Camavinga during the summer, but no proposal met the necessary economic conditions to consider his departure.

Eduardo Camavinga receives an offer of 35 million

Galatasaray offered 35 million euros for the midfielder, according to information from Turkey later reported by Italian and French media. Real Madrid deemed the amount insufficient and did not open negotiations to sell the player.

There was a significant economic difference compared to the figures mentioned during the summer. The Premier League had suggested a possible deal for Camavinga around 50 to 60 million euros, while his current market value is around 50 million euros.

Camavinga joined Madrid from Rennes in 2021 when he was 18 years old. Two years later, he extended his contract, and the club officially announced a renewal until June 30, 2029, allowing negotiations without contractual pressure.

The player himself did not push for a transfer. Camavinga maintained his intention in recent weeks to stay in Madrid and face a new stage after losing prominence in the previous season.

Real Madrid keeps Camavinga in LaLiga

The arrival of José Mourinho opened a new sports scenario for the French international. The coach fielded Camavinga as a starter alongside Fede Valverde in the 4-0 victory against Málaga, where he completed 64 passes and ended as one of the Madrid players with the highest activity in recovery.

Mourinho publicly supported his performance after that match. This confidence came after a period where the midfielder lost playing time, decreasing his value from around 100 million euros to the current 50 million euros.

Real Madrid did not need to sell during the transfer deadline. The sporting management kept other players whose future had generated movement, including Endrick, and closed the window with a squad of 26 players for the season.

The decision on Camavinga also has the institutional support of the club. From within Madrid's environment, it has been conveyed that Florentino Pérez maintains his confidence in a player signed at just 18 years old and still has nearly three full seasons left on his contract.

With the LaLiga market already closed, Eduardo Camavinga will stay at Real Madrid and compete for a place in Mourinho's midfield. Galatasaray will have to wait at least until the January 2027 transfer window if they intend to try again, as the 35 million euros offered this summer fell short of the valuation set by the Spanish club.
