Real Madrid have received a substantial offer for midfielder Eduardo Camavinga, with Los Blancos' stance made clear in a new report.
Camavinga signed for Real back in 2021 from Rennes in a £34 million deal and has proved to be an excellent signing for the 15-time European champions, making 196 appearances and winning two La Liga titles as well as two Champions Leagues.
The versatile France international has been reliable as ever in central midfield and has also deputised at left-back for Real.
He has been linked with a host of clubs during his time at the Santiago Bernabeu and now fresh reports from Spain say that Liverpool made an approach for Camavinga.

The Reds have looked light in midfield, struggling with a striking lack of physicality.
According to Fichajes, the Reds identified Camavinga, a player they have been keeping tabs on for a while now, as a top target and tabled a €70 million offer.
However it's stated that the proposal was instantly rejected by Real, who have a adopted a "non-negotiable" stance that Camavinga is not for sale.
The 23-year-old is viewed as someone who "perfectly embodies the type of player they refuse to sell", with Real not entertaining offers for their key players - particularly when they do not need to sell.
Real's response is a clear one that will not change, with it being noted that the club feel as though "opening the door to this type of operation would weaken the project and send the wrong message to the dressing room.
Camavinga's commitment to Real has never been questioned and the club want to build their future team around players like him.
The 23-year-old is contracted until 2029 after his latest extension and is seen as "one of the names destined to define an era at the club".
His last outing for Real was a substitute appearance in the 2-0 win over Sevilla and was forced to respond to reports that he and Vinicius Jr had a disagreement on the pitch.
Replying to a video which circulated and appeared to show him aim a comment, he tweeted: "Leave him alone. I wasn’t talking about him.”
