Madrid's "Real" strategist Zinedine Zidane wants to have a wider choice in the central midfield position next season. As "Marca" reports, "Real" will try to acquire a defensive midfielder this summer, who could become a backup for Casemiro. Z. Zidane gives absolute priority to "Rennes" talent Eduardo Camavinga. Despite "Real" being considered a favorite to acquire this player, there is a good chance he will remain in France for another season. "Marca" states that "Rennes" is asking for 60 million euros for the 17-year-old player. His chances of staying in the current team have increased due to "Rennes" earning the right to compete in the UEFA Champions League next season.
Understanding the possible complications in negotiations, Z. Zidane has identified three more candidates. These are Boubakary Soumare from "Lille", Aurelien Tchouameni from "Monaco", and London's "Chelsea" representative N'Golo Kante. There are more doubts about N. Kante - he is already 29 and the role of a backup would not be appropriate for a player of his caliber. Meanwhile, B. Soumare is also attracting interest from other top European clubs, promising him a key role in the starting lineup.
