The news will be of interest to Liverpool, who have been with a move for Camavinga. However, in a week where they appear to have missed out Timo Werner, news of Madrid’s high offer could be concerning.

Camavinga has broken onto the scene in the last 12 months with Rennes. A series of mature performances have meant a number of Europe’s biggest clubs are keen on signing him.

Despite being just 17, the midfielder has caught the attention of big-name managers such as Jurgen Klopp, Zinedine Zidane, and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

Madrid, though, will be confident. They aren’t frightened when it comes to breaking the bank for talent.

The sad reality of the Werner deal is that it appears Liverpool won’t be spending big on many players.

Given how strong the links with Werner were, you’d have assumed the Reds would be splashing the cash on the German if they really wanted him. That is, of course, not looking likely to be the case.

The same can probably be said for Camavinga, then. At 17, he is a massive talent but would obviously represent an even bigger risk for Klopp’s men. Sadly for the Reds, it looks like Madrid might just blow them out of the water when it comes to putting together a transfer package.
