Real Madrid reportedly moved to offer Eduardo Camavinga a new contract to fend off transfer interest from Liverpool.
The French midfielder has agreed to extend his stay at the Spanish giants until 2028, as claimed by MARCA, resulting in the player's release clause jumping from €700million to €1billion. First recruited from Rennes in 2021, the 20-year-old has become a first-team regular in Carlo Ancelotti's side and should keep his place despite the arrival of Jude Bellingham due to his ability to also perform in a left-back role.
As part of negotiations for this contract extension, Camavinga is said to have 'demanded' he returns to a regular midfield role or threatened to 'study offers on the table'. Liverpool are listed as a side who were interested in securing his services, with El Nacional indicating Jurgen Klopp 'already tried' to sign the youngster during his time at Rennes and remains keen on the player.
