"Liverpool manager Arne Slot has been forced to lean heavily on a narrow set of midfield options this season. Liverpool need more depth in midfield Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai, and Ryan Gravenberch have carried most of the load, with little reliable backup behind them. Meanwhile, new signings like Florian Wirtz have yet to make an impact in terms of goal contributions. The resulting strain has pushed Liverpool's hierarchy to seriously consider reinforcement in the engine room for the future."
"Camavinga ticks many boxes. At just 22, he already boasts elite pedigree, two Champions League titles with Real Madrid, and he offers versatility and even experience. However, in recent months he's seen his minutes restricted. The rise and form of Arda Guler and Aurelien Tchouameni, coupled with Camavinga's injury spells, have complicated his standing in Madrid's rotation. While the talk is of a 2026 pursuit, Liverpool are already placing Camavinga on their shortlist alongside other midfield targets such as Carlos Baleba and Adam Wharton."
Liverpool are targeting Eduardo Camavinga for a potential 2026 move to strengthen midfield depth. Arne Slot has relied heavily on a narrow midfield group this season, with Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai, and Ryan Gravenberch carrying most of the load and limited reliable backup. New signing Florian Wirtz has not yet contributed goals, increasing pressure on squad depth. Camavinga, 22, brings elite pedigree, two Champions League titles, versatility, and experience, but recent minutes have been restricted due to the rise of Arda Guler and Aurelien Tchouameni and injury spells. Liverpool has shortlisted Camavinga alongside Carlos Baleba and Adam Wharton, but Real Madrid may be reluctant to sell and personal roots in Madrid could complicate any move, requiring a compelling financial and sporting package to persuade him.
