Real Madrid Continues To Back Midfielder Despite Drop In Form And Transfer Links
Real Madrid are at their lowest point of the 2024/25 season so far, having suffered damaging defeats in both the La Liga title race and the Champions League.
Losing 2-1 against Valencia in domestic action meant an opportunity to close the gap to Barcelona was missed, and then a devastating 3-0 defeat away at Arsenal in the Champions League means that trophies suddenly look very far away.

The French midfielder has experienced a serious dip in form in recent weeks, and then a red card for dissent against Arsenal has led to further criticism.
Real Madrid's view of Camavinga is important because he has been heavily linked with a summer departure from the Bernabeu.
The report claims that an intermediary from a Premier League club approached Real Madrid with an offer of around $55m (€50m) recently, but Los Blancos was quick to say that the 22-year-old is not for sale.

Both Florentino Perez and Carlo Ancelotti remain confident that Camavinga has what it takes to succeed at Real Madrid in the long term.
