You have just reached the age of majority. He has broken all the precocity records in his club and in the national team, in which he has made his debut at the age of 16 and 17 respectively. A turbulent change of agent. A nervous father because he has to decide the future of his son in the coming months. All the media pressure. Camavinga is at the epicenter of the perfect storm. His performance has dropped dramatically in recent months and there are many voices that criticize him … But there are also heavyweights who defend him. The last, the own coach Deschamps.
“He has something else, he is very young. Everything seems easier for him. You have to be attentive to his evolution. His coach, Julien Stéphan, is. His debut with the National Team, for example, was too early. But I would prefer in your case that it was so before it was delayed ”, Deschamps commented in statements to Le Parisien. “I always warn them about this. Young or old, when they call you for the first time, the atmosphere, the look of others, opponents and teammates, changes. Cama (for Camavinga) has received so many accolades related to his performances… “.
Deschamps asked for more time for the player sought by Real Madrid. “The quality, they do not lose it, it is only a time of transition, but there are many issues to digest, very important expectations that have been created around you. A first call-up with the national team is not a goal, it is just one more step for him ”, said the coach regarding the future goals of the young midfielder.

That doubts begin to arise about the reliability of the midfielder is also good for the white club, as its price will not skyrocket. If the Pinault family that owns Rennes valued Camavinga at 80 million euros last summer, information comes from France indicating that it is now willing to sell it for 50 million. Contract ends in 2022 and, if he did not leave it next summer, the footballer would go free in 2022. Renewing, today, is no longer an option for him. And while you decide your future, Camavinga continues to be in the eye of the hurricane …
