Eduardo Camavinga drops transfer hint amid Tottenham rumours

Rennes midfielder Eduardo Camavinga has been linked with a move to Spurs, and admits that he dreams about playing for a great club.

The 18-year-old has emerged as one of the most promising midfielders in Ligue 1 with his displays over the last year, and earned his first cap for France last month.

Real Madrid, Liverpool and Jose Mourinho's Spurs have all been linked with a move for the defensive midfielder.

Camavinga will have just one year remaining on his current contract at the end of this season.

That leaves Rennes in a potentially tricky situation: they must either renew his contract or risk losing him on a free transfer in the summer of 2022.

The midfielder says he would not turn down a new deal at the club, but says he is in no rush to commit his future to the club.

"The great clubs make me dream, but I cannot name one in particular for my future," Camavinga told reporters.

"We’ll see [about a new deal at Rennes]. We haven't set a date to discuss my future, I'm in no rush about it.

"There will be negotiations to keep me here. It would be a pleasure for me to continue at Rennes. I still have two years left on my contract and we have enough time to talk about it."

Real Madrid were rumoured to be keen on a transfer for the midfielder in the summer, but no move came from the Spanish giants.
