Real Madrid star to miss La Liga season opener through injury
That's according to Blancos insider Melchor Ruiz of COPE, who points towards Eduardo Camavinga as the player in question.
The name of youngster Camavinga of course reemerged as an altogether prominent one in the media headlines in Spain's capital on Sunday.
This came after word was forthcoming that the Frenchman had suffered a fresh injury setback.
Amid ongoing efforts to recover full fitness following a spell on the sidelines with a muscular issue, Camavinga picked up an ankle problem in training.
And as much, as alluded to above, looks set to prove enough to keep the 22-year-old out of contention for Real Madrid's fast-approaching 2025/26 season opener.
Xabi Alonso's troops are primed to lock horns with Osasuna in a little over a week's time, but, as per the aforementioned Melchor Ruiz:
'Camavinga's ankle sprain will prevent him from starting the season. He will miss tomorrow's friendly and the first league match.'

Bayern Munich boss Vincent Kompany focuses on existing squad downplaying transfer demands
Bayern Munich boss Vincent Kompany focuses on existing squad downplaying transfer demands originally appeared on The Sporting News Bayern Munich have had a frustrating summer transfer window until now as they have suffered some major rejections before eventually securing Luis Diaz from Liverpool. They have also made a couple signings early on in the window when they signed Tom Bischof and Jonathan Tah. While many fans believed that the German champions would push for more signings once the Diaz deal was done, Bayern bosses have indicated that they are not looking for any major transfers. On Thursday, the Bavarians played out a perfect preseason friendly against Tottenham Hotspur where they won 4-0 with Harry Kane, Kingsley Coman, Lennart Karl and Jonah Kusi-Asare scoring the goals. It was a dominant performance from Bayern Munich, so much so that even Tottenham boss Thomas Frank praised the Germans and labelled them as contenders for the Champions League title. "We were obviously playing a very good team. Bayern in my opinion are one of the teams that probably are favourites to win the Champions League. They hit a good level, we didn't hit a good level, that's a bad combination but we will definitely learn from this one," Frank stated after the defeat. 📲 Follow The Sporting News on WhatsApp What did Vincent Kompany say on transfer demands? Meanwhile, Vincent Kompany was asked about his transfer wishes following Bayern's win, and the Belgian was totally focused on his existing squad. "In a healthy club, people communicate daily, and that's certainly the case with us. We're always communicating, not just about the squad. But everyone has their role. For me the only important thing is that this squad performs as best as possible," Kompany told Magenta TV. "I've always said that we have so much talent, the most important thing is that the players are fit. Right now, we're missing Jamal Musiala, Alphonso Davies, [Hiroki] Itō, and now, hopefully not for long, [Aleksandar] Pavlović. We can make many steps forward when the injured players come back." Earlier this week, Bayern bosses attended a meeting discussing the club's further plans from the transfer window and there were reports that they have come to the conclusion that no urgent signings are needed as of now. Despite the dominant showing in the preseason clash against Tottenham, Bayern have issues with their squad depth. So, if they don't make further signings this summer then Kompany will have to rely on the academy graduates to fill up squad roles and given their performances against Spurs, they look ready for the challenge.

Barcelona transfer signing could be in store for surpising start
Barcelona transfer signing could be in store for surpising start originally appeared on The Sporting News Starting striker Robert Lewandowski has been ruled out for a few weeks with a hamstring issue according to a statement from This provides potentially a surprise start for summer transfer Marcus Rashford who was brought in as a rotational player and occasionally a starter from the left wing position, but now he might be given the chance to start at striker to kick off Barcelona's league campaign. This isn't a guarantee that he starts though as Ferran Torres had plenty of experience last season covering for Lewandowski coming up with almost 20 goals in all competitions. Ferran also does seem to be heavily relied on by Flick as he's been his first attacker off the bench since the manager arrived. Rashford did start in the Joan Gamper trophy which was mostly made up of starters and showed his ability to link up play well by providing an assist. He also did get hooked at the half and had a bad miss on an open net so it's unsure how much stake should be put into that game. If Rashford does get the start, it would be a great way to showcase his ability as it's unclear how many starts he's likely to get this season. He has the perfet chance to show he's still an amazing player and will play a key role throughout the season. It would be him playing out of position a bit but in Rashford's situation he has to take advantage of any opportunity given to him. He's also is playing with two of the best wingers and creators in the world so if he does get the start, he has no reason not to perform well.
