Hi there, welcome back to GoalNiza channel. Eduardo Camavinga is a young
French footballer who is expected to be a success in the future. The fact that he has
become France's youngest goal scorer in over a century indicates that he would be
an ideal rising star in French football. Some fans believe he is a better player
than Paul Pogba. Now let’s dive into some facts about him that you might not know.
Camavinga
was born to his mother, Sofia and father, Celestino in Miconge, a community of Angola,
located in the province of Cabinda. He has five siblings. His parents are Congolese
nationals who migrated from Angola to France when he was only two years. Interestingly,
he is a citizen of France, Angola and Congo because his ancestral roots are traced to these
countries. Upon arriving in France, Eduardo Camavinga’s parents first made their home at
Lille before moving to the commune of Fougeres, which is just 40 kilometres away from Rennes.
It was at Fougeres that Camavinga grew up alongside his siblings.
Regarding his love life, Eduardo Camavinga is currently single and not involved in any
romantic relationships. He isn’t married either.
At the age 11, Camavinga joined Rennes' youth system. He signed his first professional contract
on 14 December 2018, at the age of 16 years and one month, becoming the youngest ever professional
for the club. He scored his first goal for Rennes in a 1–0 win against Lyon on 15 December 2019.
On 31 August 2021, Real Madrid announced Camavinga had signed a contract until 30
June 2027 from Rennes. He made his debut in a 5–2 win over Celta Vigo on 12 September 2021,
in which he scored a goal shortly after coming off the bench.
Up to now, Camavinga has appeared in 40 matches and scored 2 goals for Real Madrid.
In October 2020, Camavinga made his first start for France in a 7–1 win against Ukraine where
he scored his first international goal. This made him the youngest goalscorer for France
since Maurice Gastiger in 1914. In June 2021, Camavinga was named in Sylvain Ripoll's 18-man
France squad for the Summer Olympics in 2021. However he was later removed from
the squad after his club, Rennes, objected. As of 2022, his net worth is estimated at $10
million which mainly comes from his football career.
Camavinga owns a house in Lille where he lives with his parents. It was worth around $800,000
at the time of purchase. The home has four spacious bedrooms, one of which is 25 square
meters in size, two bathrooms, and a terrace on the ground floor. The charming living room
has original floor tiles and measures about 31 square meters. It has a wood-burning fireplace,
a fantastic ceiling height, and a view of the house's wooded structures. It provides access to
a 12 m2 paved courtyard that is typical of Old Lille. A dining area is built into the central
island in the approximately 16 m2 blue stone kitchen, which also has plenty of storage.
Audi Q7 is the car he drives every day. He bought it for $60,000. This car is one of
the best three-row luxury SUVs you can buy. It impresses with a lush interior,
smooth performance and a comprehensive set of tech features. The only things keeping it from
universal acclaim are the cumbersome infotainment interface and tight third-row seating.
It has a top speed of $155 mph. The
second car he has is Mercedes-Benz GLA which was worth $35,000. This is a good luxury
subcompact SUV. It's easy to live with day to day, thanks in part to satisfying acceleration,
good fuel economy, and a balanced ride. Throw in a slick infotainment
system and comfortable seating, and it emerges as a fine overall package.
And the third car in his collection is BMW iX which was worth $90,000. The iX is the ultimate
driving machine, now electrified. Acceleration is cat quick, amplified by the vehicle's thrust from
a standing start. On an unlimited speed section of the Autobahn, it quickly approached the car's
120 mph top speed. Camavinga
stands out defensively as well. His tackling is excellent which is also why he is nicknamed
'Taklevinga' among the regular Ligue 1 opponents. You might not know that he practiced judo before
getting into football. While living in Fougères, Camavinga was into Judo and often practiced the
art. But lucky for the rest of us football fans, he decided to drop the sport and got
into football. Although I for one have no doubt, he would have excelled in it,
a world where we’re deprived of Camavinga’s football skills is not enticing at all. Right?
At 18 years of age, Eduardo Camavinga already has a stadium named after him.
The stadium is in La Chapelle-Janson near his hometown and where he grew up in Fougères.
Its name is Stade Intercommunal Eduardo Camavinga. The new stadium is home to the
CF2L, an academy that brings together talented players around the community to train and play.
