EDUARDO CAMAVINGA has claimed his Real Madrid move ‘depends on several factors’ but admits he is considering a switch from Rennes.
Los Blancos have long been interested in the 18-year-old attacking star and he is seen as one of their top priorities in the next transfer window with a £44million move on the cards, according to reports in Spain.

Already a senior France international with three caps, Camavinga is in the last 18 months of his contract.
And the highly-rated teenager has also been linked with Premier League giants Manchester United as a potential long-term replacement for Paul Pogba.
Camavinga has confessed ‘it is nice’ that big clubs like Madrid are fighting for his signature ahead of an anticipated summer move.
He told Canal: “‘Of course it is nice when a big club is interested in you. But I have a cool head, I am at Rennes.
“We will wait until the end of the season. We will meet and weigh up the pros and cons then.”
Camavinga praised his dad for making sure he doesn’t get big-headed as European powerhouses make noises around his availability.
He added: “I always remember where we come from. I know where I come from and where I want to go.”
When asked if his destination will be Zinedine Zidane’s Real Madrid, Camavinga replied: “It depends on several factors.”

With his eyes set on a move, Camavinga has employed Gareth Bale’s agent Jonathan Barnett to help secure a dream transfer.
The main obstacle in Camavinga’s path to the Bernabeu is the club’s desire to finally land Kylian Mbappe from Paris Saint-Germain.
At the end of the season the 22-year-old French World Cup winner will have just 12 months left on his deal at the Parc des Princes.
And Madrid have made no secret of their desire to bring boyhood Real fan Mbappe to the Spanish capital.
But a mega bucks move could mean the Spanish giants do not have the money required to bring in Camavinga at the same time – with club books set to show losses of £81million.
