Liverpool Transfer News: Fabrizio Romano Update on Eduardo Camavinga Interest
Liverpool’s long standing admiration for Eduardo Camavinga has resurfaced at a crucial point in the transfer cycle, with fresh developments emerging from Spain and France. The midfielder has been tracked since his time at Rennes, and that interest has not faded under Arne Slot, who guided Liverpool to the Premier League title last season.
Recent reports suggest that Real Madrid could be open to offers this summer, a shift that has caught the attention of clubs across Europe. Liverpool are understood to be among those monitoring the situation closely, particularly given their need to refresh midfield options with a player of Camavinga’s profile.
Fabrizio Romano provides key update
Respected transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano has now addressed the speculation, offering clarity on Real Madrid’s stance and the conditions required for a deal.
Speaking on his YouTube channel, Romano explained: “We should remind that Camavinga is a very important player. Maybe he had some difficult moments, also against Mallorca the other day, not in his best form.
“But he remains a really, really important player. We’re not talking about a player that is completely out of the Real Madrid project.
“Real Madrid don’t consider Camavinga out of the project or a player they have to sell at all costs.
“But… if they receive a good proposal, Real Madrid could consider the situation of Camavinga in the summer. That’s the case, that’s the situation.
“Then, if this big proposal that’s attractive for Camavinga and attractive for Real Madrid doesn’t come, Real Madrid are not desperate.”
Romano also insisted that “some” Premier League clubs have “started calling” over a potential move for the midfielder. You’d expect Liverpool to be amongst those potential suitors.
This update is significant for Liverpool, as it confirms that while Camavinga is not actively being pushed out, there is a realistic opportunity if the right offer is made.
Real Madrid stance opens door to transfer talks
The key takeaway from Romano’s comments is that Real Madrid are willing to listen, rather than actively seeking a sale. That nuance matters. It means any move for Eduardo Camavinga will depend on both financial strength and the player’s own willingness to leave.
Reports from France have suggested a fee in the region of €50m could be enough, although that figure may rise if multiple clubs enter the race. Liverpool’s recruitment team will be weighing whether to act decisively or wait for further clarity on Madrid’s position.
Romano also made it clear that Camavinga would not be frozen out if he stays, reinforcing the idea that Madrid remain in control of the situation.

Champions League factor in Liverpool pursuit
Liverpool’s chances of securing Camavinga could ultimately hinge on Champions League qualification. The midfielder is believed to prioritise clubs competing at the highest European level, which aligns with his current status at Real Madrid.
As things stand, Liverpool are in contention for a top five finish, which would be enough to secure qualification. However, inconsistency in recent performances has raised questions about whether they can maintain that position.
For Liverpool, the equation is straightforward. Secure Champions League football, present a compelling project under Slot, and match Real Madrid’s valuation. If those conditions are met, Romano’s update suggests there is a genuine opening to bring Eduardo Camavinga to Anfield.
