Real Madrid midfielder at risk of missing out on World Cup squad
Real Madrid midfielder at risk of missing out on World Cup squad Real Madrid midfielder Eduardo Camavinga could be facing one of the most difficult moments of his career, with fresh reports suggesting his place in France’s squad for the upcoming FIFA World Cup is far from guaranteed. According to L’Equipe , the competition within Didier Deschamps’ midfield setup has reached a level where even established talents are no longer assured of selection. France are expected to name an expanded squad of 25 or 26 players, which should, in theory, offer more room for inclusion.
In this regard, Deschamps is likely to pick around five players for central roles, and the depth available is creating a serious selection headache. Overload in the national team At present, the French manager has a wealth of options to choose from. Players like Aurelien Tchouameni, N’Golo Kante, Adrien Rabiot, Manu Kone, and Warren Zaïre-Emery are all in contention.
With only two spots available, this creates intense competition for just two starting positions, making every decision crucial. Camavinga’s versatility could have been a key advantage. His ability to operate as a left-back adds another dimension to his profile.

Inconsistent season at Real Madrid A major factor behind his uncertain status is his inconsistency this season.
Injuries have played a significant role in disrupting his rhythm, preventing him from building sustained form at Real Madrid. As a result, he has struggled to fully establish himself as a regular starter, regardless of tactical setups or managerial preferences. This lack of continuity has inevitably impacted his standing at the international level.
