Eduardo Camavinga on Karim Benzema: He Made Me Feel Comfortable at Real Madrid
By db-admin
DBasia.news – Eduardo Camavinga confesses about his Real Madrid teammate, Karim Benzema. He said, the French national team striker made him adapt quickly at the Santiago Bernabeu
The 18-year-old midfielder revealed he was welcomed by all Real Madrid players but he explained why he maintains a closer relationship with his compatriot.
“I was very surprised, especially with Benzema, because they are very humble players,” Camavinga told Marca.
“Benzema immediately put me at ease. They even started joking with me, even though I don’t speak Spanish. Both Luka Modric and Benzema gave me different names,” he said with a laugh.
“It’s a secret, I won’t say it but I’ve integrated into the team. Then we could speak in French with Benzema. I sat next to him at the dinner table. He told me that if I needed anything I should tell him.”
Camavinga then revealed the main differences between LaLiga and Ligue 1 before stressing that his goal was to be called up to the French senior team again.
“I love the Spanish league,” Camavinga said. “It’s less physical than the French league.”
