Things are heating up between Eduardo Camavinga and the Premier League: a Chelsea legend speaks out

The main protagonist in recent weeks at Real Madrid has been, without a doubt, Eduardo Camavinga. First, he grabbed all the headlines for his desired physical recovery, then he surprised everyone by showing that he has returned at a high level in the Clásico against FC Barcelona. Beyond that, now his name is making news again for very different reasons: his possible transfer to Chelsea.

In recent days, Chelsea has intensified its interest in Eduardo Camavinga. From England, they claim that the London club is willing to put €80 million ($80 million) on the table to try to convince Florentino Pérez. This amount reflects the magnitude of the bet and the trust they have that Camavinga can become the engine of the new project.

Chelsea legend speaks openly about Eduardo Camavinga

A very authoritative voice has spoken precisely on this subject. Claude Makélélé, a legend of both Chelsea and Real Madrid, has spoken openly about the possibility of Eduardo Camavinga landing at Stamford Bridge. His statements, reported by several English media outlets, have caused a great stir.

"Eduardo Camavinga is the kind of player who can adapt perfectly to the Premier League," Makélélé began firmly. "When you play at Bernabéu, you can do it at any team in the world. But I'd be surprised if Madrid let him leave," he added, hinting that the move would be very difficult to make happen.

Chelsea and Real Madrid are very clear about it

At Chelsea, however, they aren't giving up. Their coach, Enzo Maresca, believes that the Frenchman would be the ideal piece to strengthen a midfield that is still searching for balance and consistency. Alongside Caicedo and Enzo Fernández, Eduardo Camavinga could form a dream trio capable of dominating any match.

Meanwhile, at Real Madrid, the position is clear. Florentino Pérez has no intention of negotiating, at least for now. Eduardo Camavinga is considered an investment for both the present and the future, and the club fully trusts his development under Xabi Alonso's guidance.

Moreover, Camavinga himself doesn't seem to be in a hurry to leave either. His inner circle assures that he is happy in Madrid, fully adapted and committed to the project. However, Chelsea's interest and Makélélé's words reignite a debate that will undoubtedly shape the coming months.
