Liverpool are reportedly leading the race to sign Real Madrid midfielder Eduardo Camavinga, with the Spanish giants now open to offers following a reported dip in confidence at the Santiago Bernab\u00e9u.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In a shock update from L\u2019Equipe (subscription required)<\/a>Real Madrid have removed the 23-year-old from their \u201cnon-transferable\u201d list for the first time since his arrival from Rennes in 2021.<\/p>\n

The Premier League champions are said to be on \u201cred alert\u201d, viewing this as a rare opportunity to land a player they have tracked since his teenage years in France.<\/p>\n

Bidding war looms with Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United<\/h2>\n

While Liverpool are said to be the frontrunners, they face significant domestic competition.<\/p>\n

Both Arsenal and Manchester United are monitoring the situation closely.<\/p>\n

Chelsea are also interested, with The Daily Briefing previously reporting<\/a> that the Blues along with Liverpool have made fresh contacts with Camavinga\u2019s entourage.<\/p>\n

The report from France suggests that Real Madrid are bracing for a bidding war but have already established a clear financial threshold.<\/p>\n

Los Blancos will reportedly not consider any bids below \u00a350 million (\u20ac58m).<\/p>\n

For a player under contract until 2029, this figure is seen as a relative bargain by English clubs, especially given Camavinga\u2019s pedigree as a two-time Champions League winner.<\/p>\n

Liverpool\u2019s long-term pursuit of Camavinga<\/h2>\n

Liverpool\u2019s interest in the France international is far from a recent development. The club\u2019s recruitment team has kept extensive files on Camavinga for years, even attempting to hijack his move to Madrid back in 2021.<\/p>\n

The urgency has intensified following a series of defensive lapses at Real Madrid, most notably in a recent defeat to Mallorca where former Liverpool defender Alvaro Arbeloa publicly criticised the midfielder\u2019s concentration.<\/p>\n

With Liverpool\u2019s midfield being one of their weakest points this season, the Reds could do with a player of Camavinga\u2019s profile to strengthen the midfield.<\/p>\n
