Real Madrid manager Xabi Alonso is reportedly uncertain about the best utilization of Eduardo Camavinga upon his injury return.
Alonso hasn’t got the opportunity to put the 22-year-old to the test in competitive games since taking over at the club because he is still recuperating from a severe setback he sustained back in April.
In recent years, Camavinga has emerged as one of Real Madrid’s most versatile players. He played a variety of roles under Carlo Ancelotti.
But this adaptability has also led to an issue. The question of which position brings out the best in Alonso is still unsolved as the upcoming season draws near.

Not only has Camavinga not fully recovered, but the Frenchman is also unsure about his role in Alonso’s plans.
Camavinga is still somewhat of a mystery when it comes to his ideal position, even as Aurelien Tchouameni has recently become comfortable in the defensive midfield position.
The France international had a tough season last year, missing 29 games due to injury. That is about 45% of Real Madrid’s games, which is concerning for a player who was previously regarded as one of the best of his time.
Alonso Looks To Fully Utilize Camavinga’s Potential
According to Madrid Universal, now that the 2025–2026 season has begun, Alonso hopes to realize Camavinga’s full potential. The midfielder may even benefit from the timing.
After undergoing shoulder surgery, Jude Bellingham is expected to miss the majority of the first half of the season, creating a void in Real Madrid’s midfield rotation.
Camavinga now has the opportunity to demonstrate why he is still regarded as a crucial component for the future.
Choosing where to play Camavinga and providing him with the consistency he needs to succeed is Alonso’s dilemma.
