Real Madrid considers selling Eduardo Camavinga to finance the transfer of Alexis Mac Allister from Liverpool
Real Madrid are once again making headlines in the transfer market, with reports in Spain suggesting that the club could consider selling Eduardo Camavinga to pave the way for a future move for Alexis Mac Allister. The Liverpool midfielder has emerged as a long-term target for the Merengues, though the operation is unlikely to materialize before 2026.
Mac Allister as the Priority for 2026
According to Defensa Central, Madrid’s sporting directors view the Argentine World Cup winner as a prime candidate to refresh their midfield. At just 26, Mac Allister has already proven his quality in the Premier League, helping Liverpool lift the 2024/25 title with seven goals and six assists in 49 appearances across all competitions.
Camavinga’s Future in Doubt
To make room financially and in squad planning, Madrid are reportedly evaluating the possibility of offloading Camavinga. The French international has completed four seasons at the Bernabéu but has yet to cement himself as an undisputed starter. His versatility has been valued by Carlo Ancelotti, but recent performances have left doubts inside the club.
Timing of the Move
Although the rumors are heating up, Madrid are not expected to push for Mac Allister immediately. Instead, 2026 appears the likely window for a big-money move, giving Camavinga more time to prove he deserves a place in the project.
Other Liverpool Names on the Radar
Mac Allister is not the only Liverpool player admired in Madrid. Defender Ibrahima Konaté is also being monitored, though recent reports indicate he has given Barcelona the green light to pursue his signing, potentially complicating Real’s chances.
