Eduardo Camavinga of Real Madrid has been a player of interest to Liverpool for some time now.It was reported at the back end of 2025 that the Reds remained keen on Camavinga.Now, as the summer transfer window approaches, an insight into Los Blancos’ stance on an exit has been shared, with the Spanish club not thought to be willing to accept less than €50m for the Frenchman. Will Xabi Alonso be Liverpool manager by the start of the 2026/27 season?

“For now, Real Madrid hasn’t set a price, but it’s clear they don’t want to go below 50 million euros.”Whether or not a move is made by Liverpool in the 2026 summer transfer window remains to be seen, but it does seem likely a new midfielder will arrive before the start of next term.Wayne Rooney has questioned Arne Slot’s midfield this season, describing it as a big problem.Alexis Mac Allister has not been at his best this term, while the options to cover the Argentine are currently limited.Curtis Jones has been poor at times in 2025/26 and is not getting regular minutes under Slot anymore.Jones’ long-term future is also up in the air going into the next transfer window, and a replacement will be needed if he is sold.Elsewhere, Wataru Endo is the only other senior midfield option when fit, but even before he was injured, the Japan international was hardly used in his natural position.There is, of course, Trey Nyoni, who could become a regular feature at some point in the future.But the Liverpool Academy product is still inexperienced, and if the Reds do want to actually mount a proper title challenge next season, they probably need a ready-made option to sit at the base of their midfield.Join Our NewsletterReceive a digest of our best Liverpool content each week direct to your mailbox
