EDuardo Camavinga is going through a difficult period at Real Madrid. The sending off in Munich was the straw that broke the camel’s back after difficult seasons due to injuries and inconsistent play during the Xabi Alonso era and now with Arbeloa. In fact, it was difficult to imagine myself being left out of the starting eleven against Bayern, when Choameni was the only midfielder on the team who was absent. And it felt even more so when I saw myself heading to the dressing room after receiving my second yellow card. As reported by MARCA, the former Rennes player could not hold back his tears.
Camavinga is being discussed as one of the transfer candidates in a season where change is on the horizon after his inconsistent campaign saw the club miss out on silver again. Although he is a sought-after player, the Frenchman has no intention of giving up and leaving Real Madrid.

Camavinga also missed the most important match, the second leg against Bayern, along with Arbeloa. And the coach reportedly tested him in the midfield to give him shots and confidence. He was unable to return, especially as dental problems kept him away from the team again. The Frenchman chose to avoid surgery, knowing that it would mean he would be unable to play against Guardiola’s side in the Champions League.
Just when things were going well with Xavi, another misfortune happened. During the game in San Mamés, he felt discomfort in his ankle, which was later determined to be a muscle problem. He had already been on the bench in the home game against Celta, but a second test confirmed that he will be sidelined for the home game against City and the La Liga game against Alaves due to a muscle injury.
The former Rennes player has seven league games to regain his confidence without the pressure of playing for Madrid’s title. It will be interesting to see how Arbeloa deals with this final phase, with many internationals already looking ahead to the World Cup. Tuesday’s game will definitely be a litmus test for Camavinga, who returns to the Bernabéu after playing against Bayern. For him, it’s the beginning of a new career. It’s about bringing back the Madrid fans and the Bernabéu.
