Soon deprived of Luka Modric, at the end of the contract after the Club World Cup, Xabi Alonso must find solutions in the midfield. The new Real Madrid coach plans to assign a major role to Eduardo Camavonga that could be reviewed before the end of the tournament in the United States.
Xabi Alonso is not just waiting for the return of Kylian Mbappé. While the Real Madrid striker recoveries acute gastroenteritis, his trainer is also impatient to recover Eduardo Camavonga. The midfielder was seriously injured in an adductor last April. At that time, the verdict announced three to four months is absence, and therefore an assured package for the World Cup. But while competition in the United States has just started, the reintegration of the former Rennes player is envisaged.

Nothing is made at the moment. It will obviously be necessary to wait to see what are the sensations of Eduardo Camavonga in the days and weeks to come, knowing that the medical staff will not take any risks. In any case, the simple question on a possible early return represents excellent news for Real Madrid and Xabi Alonso. The Madrid coach considers the tricolor international as a crucial element for next season, which is more after the scheduled departure of Luka Modric.

Categally opposed to his transfer despite the interest of Arsenal, the technician really appreciates his intensity in the pressing and his ability to break the opposing lines, lists the daily AS. Eduardo Camavanga does not have the creativity of the Croatian or his former teammate Toni Kroos. But Real Madrid believes that alongside Federico Valverde and his compatriot Aurélien Tchouaméni, the left-hander can progress in the construction of the game. Still, the relaying environment should finally be spared by injuries. And why not from this club World Cup?
