Camavinga chooses Barnett, Gareth Bale's agent

Agents have always been a determining factor in closing signings. Affinities or antipathies between them and the clubs interested in their players can be key for them to end up in one place or another. One of the great goals of Real Madrid for the future, Eduardo Camavinga, wanted to change his representative and this, as confirmed by AS, has already made his choice: Jonathan Barnett of Stellar Group, who also represents Gareth Bale.

Before staying with Barnett, Camavinga also held meetings with Pini Zahavi, Lewandowski's agent, Jorge Mendes, Cristiano Ronaldo's agent, and with the Italian Mino Raiola, Pogba's representative, but finally he decided on the British. Camavinga's father and brother flew to London several days ago to meet with the agent and were convinced of the future plans presented by the head of Stellar Group. Together with him, the midfielder will decide on his future. “We hope to work closely with the family,” the representative told this newspaper.

Now, the most important thing remains to be decided, what will be your next destination when you decide to leave Rennes. The French footballer has a contract until 2022 and interests Real Madrid, yes, but also Juventus, United or Paris Saint-Germain among others. The whites have him among their objectives although the priority for 2021 remains Kylian Mbappé. The starting price this summer was 80 million euros but, given a small performance bump at the start of the season, Rennes could consider a reduction of up to 50 million euros.

In his latest statements, the young midfielder did not offer too many clues about his future. The big clubs make me dream, but I can't particularly reveal one for my future, “he said. “If I want to continue in Rennes? We will see. We have not set a date to discuss my future, I am not in a hurry about it,” he added about his renewal. A future that must be clarified shortly.

So far this season, the midfielder continues to be a key player for Rennes although he is finding it difficult to stand out more than in the previous one. This campaign accumulates thirteen games played although he missed several key games for his club due to an injury such as two in the Champions League against Sevilla and Chelsea and the match against PSG in the League. The midfielder has lost his chance to shine in Europe after Rennes added four defeats and a draw in this group stage.

Camavinga is Barnett's latest signing who also has other top-tier footballers in his portfolio such as Gareth Bale (Tottenham), Saúl Ñíguez (Atlético de Madrid), Jack Grealish (Aston Villa), Maxi Gómez (Valencia) or Unai Simón, Athletic goalkeeper who recently debuted with the National Team.
