Camavinga comments on dispute with Kanté in France: “I’m not afraid of anything, I’m confident”

This Thursday, Real Madrid midfielder Eduardo Camavinga spoke about some issues in France and the European Championship at a press conference. Among the topics discussed, he commented on the dispute over a place with N’Golo Kanté, formerly of Chelsea and currently at Al-Ittihad.

“I’m not afraid of anything, I’m confident. Kanté is a great player and it’s normal for him to have his space. The most important thing is that we have competence, that’s the logic of a great team. You have to give everything to have time to game,” he said.

The player was also asked if his experience at the World Cup could have an impact on the European Championship and he responded as follows:

“I’m going to start in the same way as in the World Cup, even though I’ve played less. I need to be prepared and I’ll do my best. I have experience in the World Cup, but I’ll approach the competition in the same way”, he reported.

Finally, the 21-year-old also spoke about the feeling of winning his second Champions League title, his first as a starter. Real Madrid became champions of the Champions League after beating Borussia Dortmund 2-0 in the final, held at Wembley last Saturday, and Camavinga was one of the team’s starters in the match.

“You never get used to it, it’s my second, but there are people who have won six. The first always has a special and different flavor, but it’s always good to win titles. The first time I played a lot, but they talk as if it wasn’t like that. This time I won as a starter once, but let’s say the first time was better, although it’s more pleasant to be a starter”, he said.

Now, Camavinga continues preparing for the European Championship, which will be held between June 14th and July 14th, in Germany. France takes the field next Sunday, at 4:15 pm (Brasília time), against Canada, at the Matmut Atlantique Stadium, to play the last friendly before the tournament.
