Camavinga, 22, has impressed for Real ever since joining the club from Rennes in 2021, and is widely viewed as one of the best young midfielders in Europe. The 22-year-old can also fill in at left back and has already won 24 caps for France despite his tender age. And, according to Sky Germany, City are monitoring Camavinga and have him on their list of targets for the summer. Pep Guardiola's side have endured a difficult campaign and they are widely expected to undergo a major squad overhaul at the end of the season. The restructuring - which comes after Guardiola penned a new two-year contract in November - already began in January via the additions of Omar Marmoush, Vitor Reis, Nico Gonzalez and Abdukodir Khusanov.
