The 23-year-old midfielder has been mentioned as one of the players who could leave the Santiago Bernabeu this summer , with several clubs monitoring his situation after the club made him available on the transfer market. Already back to work With Real Madrid’s first-team players due to return to training on 13 July, Camavinga has started his preparations ahead of schedule. Indeed, the midfielder, who was not called up by France for the ongoing 2026 FIFA World Cup, has been working both in the gym and on the training pitch as he aims to report back in peak physical condition. Camavinga took to social media to share pictures of his intense training leading up to pre-season.

The 23-year-old star’s objective is clear: arrive fully prepared, impress Mourinho from the opening days of pre-season and prove that he should remain part of Real Madrid’s plans for the upcoming campaign. Determined to stay After enduring a difficult 2025/26 season, during which he failed to establish himself in the team under both Xabi Alonso and Alvaro Arbeloa, there is a lot of uncertainty surrounding Camavinga’s future.

Despite the growing rumours around his future, Camavinga has no intention of leaving Real Madrid this summer. The French international remains fully committed to Real Madrid, where he is under contract until 2029, and is determined to fight for his place in the squad under new manager Jose Mourinho. Aware that competition for places will be fierce, Camavinga wants to use pre-season to convince the new head coachthat he deserves an important role in the team.
