French midfielder Eduardo Camavinga has hinted that he may be on his way out of Ligue 1 club, Stade Rennes.

Camavinga has been impressive for Les Rennais this term with eight league appearances and helped inspire the side to third place on the log. The 18-year-old, whose contract runs out in 2022 has been severally linked with a move to Milan and Juventus but refused to make a definite statement of commitment when quizzed about his future with the club.
“We’ll see what happens next season,” he said at a press conference. “I read the news about [the interest of big clubs] but for now I am a player of Rennes and I don’t think about other teams.
“I have a contract until June 2022, I am a player of Rennes and we’ll see what happens next season.
“I still have two years left on my contract and there will be time to talk about it
“I’ll meet the club and it would not bother me to renew with the club where I grew up.”

Other top European clubs such as Manchester City, United PSG and Real Madrid, are reportedly interested in signing the France international.
“I dream of playing in a big team but I don’t have a favourite one,” he concluded.

Camavinga has already 52 senior Rennes caps to his name as well as two appearances and one goal with France national team.
