The Eduardo Camavinga phenomenon has been diluted throughout the season. If the French international started the course at a very high level, attending and scoring in the first two days of Ligue 1, something that earned him to be called up for the first time with the French team, in recent games his performance has experienced a significant drop that could cost him the title tomorrow against Sevilla.
According to information from L’Equipe, Julien Stephan, Rennes coach, has rehearsed an eleven in recent days without the presence of the 17-year-old player. The demand of the calendar and the change of position of Camavinga, going from acting in the double pivot to playing as an interior, have caused the midfielder sought by Real Madrid to lose importance in the Breton team's schemes. In fact, their fall in performance has coincided with a crisis of result for Rennes, who have not been victorious for four consecutive games, including the draw on the first day of the Champions League against Krasnodar.
Rennes could start tomorrow at the Sánchez Pizjuán with a new system, since Stephan has tried a 4-2-3-1 in recent training sessions with the presence of Grenier in the midfielder and with Doku on the right wing. Without Camavinga, the rojinegros will seek to be more vertical and depopulate the center of the field with the aim of moving quickly and surprise Lopetegui on the backlash. It will be a decisive match for the third-placed in Ligue 1, as a defeat could be almost definitive for their qualification options in the Champions League.
