Manchester United eyeing Camavinga along with Frenkie de Jong
Although United and Ten Hag are still looking for a new centre forward, a central mid-fielder like De Jong is their number choice. Along with De Jong, Manchester United eyeing Eduard Camavinga this summer. However, Real Madrid considers him “untouchable.”
The French superstar has been a part of Real Madrid’s long-term plan. He is surely the one to fill the gaps of superstars like Luka Modric and Toni Kroos after their time is over. United was always an admirer of Camavinga from his time at Rennes. But, as per the La Liga giants, he is equal in value to Borussia Dortmund star Jude Bellingham.
